The equivalent new functions for numToChar and charToNum is numToNativeChar and 
nativeCharToNum. Those return the same values as the originals. However, I'm still getting the 
wrong result. I can subtract 94 to get lower-case "f" but that isn't consistent; the amount to 
subtract varies depending on the value of pKeyName. So there's some trick I'm missing.

Tested on Mac.
