In a message on 03-01-19 Maurice Kinal said to Holger Granholm:

Hi Maurice,

 HG> Yes, that is true for letters but for various other characters
 HG> the first byte is DA.

MK> The only characters that are prefixed (start) with DA, range from
MK> U+0680 (DA80) to U+06BF (DABF) and are all Arabic characters
MK> (letters).

I was probably confused when interpreting dec/hex conversion.

I was looking for the hyphen and citation characters and the euro sign.

Even though sitting with a hex/dec conversion table in front of me, I
can't get my brain to understand today.

With decimal interpretation I get the citation mark as 218 128 157.

Nej, jag gråter inte och jag saknar inte vi <BG>


Have a good night,

Holger
