text encoding gotcha?

[Mark Powell]

Suddenly, I am seeing something similar in my IDE (running on Windows).  A
list is showing either the box you describe or a bold pipe at the end of
each line.  A chartonum query identifies this character as 13, and when I
replace numtochar(13) with empty, the artifact goes away.  This 'fix' is
making me nervous, because it seems to be the equivalent of saying "strip
the carriage returns", which it is not doing.

I am seeing this for the first time today.  Maybe we have the same flu.

Suddenly when I do a Win32 standalone build, when I run it on windows, 
some fields are all garbled looking. Every other character is a box- 
signifying maybe this is using a wide character encoding. This is 
bizarre- I'm not using Unicode at all. What the heck could be going on? 
Is it possible to disable the automatic MacToISO encoding for fields 
which happens when you launch a Mac-built standalone on Windows?
