Ahh, the infamous window's curly-apostrophe . . . in grad school I had an
ISN line (no, not IDSN; 9600 baud ISN). That apostrophe is a ^S with bit 7
high. It would hang my line until I did a hard-reset of the hardware, or
got a ^Q. Ultimately, I wrote a script that hiccuped a ^Q every five
seconds or so.
Anyway, I'm trying to make strings in fields that will work on either
platform; legal blurbs tend to use section marks a *lot*
