I get the same (¼) thing with CODEPAGE=850,437 when I'm running a VIO
(text) application, but that doesn't match 8859-1. When I run my
e-mail application it displays ¬ in accordance with my default e-mail
character set.
Note: if you're using that character in e-mail then your header should
include three fields like
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
You'll need to replace 8859-1 with the Euro version (8859-15?) if you
use the Euro, and you'll need to replace 8bit with BASE64 or whatever
if your mail client or server don't support 8-bit transfers.
