Currently it is not possible to add letters outside the range U+0020 - U+007F to a file using the edit command. In Unicode the following are control characters: * U+0000—U+001F (C0 controls) * U+007F (DEL) * U+0080—U+009F (C1 controls). For reference see: * https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf * https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0080.pdf So the characters we should exclude from the file buffer are: U+0000 - U+001f, U+007f - U009F Allow all other characters as input to the file buffer in Unicode mode. Allow only ASCII characters as input in ASCII mode. When saving a file in ASCII mode replace non-ASCII characters by a question mark ('?').
