in reply to utf8 bloody chars

Be careful about zeros vs. the letter "O". If I put zeros where you have "O"s I get a lower case omega. It's sometimes hard to tell when reading, but the letter tends to be a bit rounder and the number more ovalized. Back in the day publishers were better about using zeros with slashes through them- I don't recall if O'Reilly has moved away from that.

    Thanks so much to both of you. I had never use utf before, since I have only done numerics so far
