What code page are you using? What release of Regina? In some code pages Not is
'AA'X, in others 'AC'X. In Unicode it's U+00AC ('C2AC'X in UTF-8).

Stay with IBM-1047, preferred by z/OS UNIX and supported by autoconversion.
Don't nurture "major suckage".
But what about the '¬'?
If I copy-and-;aste it from regina.pdf it doesn't work as a negator, and:
say c2x( '¬' )
C2AC
(It works if I translate it to IBM-1252.) Text in manuals should Just Work
when copied into programs.
