Hi Ralph.
Using Thunderbird here.

Here's a sentence ending in two spaces.  And a second sentence after
which I'll put two non-breaking spaces.??Perhaps that shows a difference
when you view it.

the query translates to your non-breaking spaces

But:
$ printf '\u00a342\n'
£42

Yes a pound sign.

Terry:
"I am also using Thunderbird, so if my messages get corrupted a
described by Graeme, it would be useful to know.? I was originally

trained to type at an Adult Education class in Weymouth, so was taught
to put two spaces after a full-stop.? If there are query marks at the
beginning of this sentence, It would be useful to know, although quite
how I would be able to change after nearly 45 years of habit. I'm not sure."

I don't know how this will appear on your screen, but the query marks are there.

Don't know where that leaves us - never had much to do with character encoding.

Anyway, thanks for the responses.
Graeme
