Interesting....I found anothers two. Damn!  No only those typographical
quotes but also this '–' thing that Word puts I think when you type one '-'
after another '-'. For example '--' it converts it to '–'  and that is 8211
ascii.

Then when you type '...' sometimes it converts it to '…'   (they are not
just 3 dots., they are smaller and nearer each other). This ascii is 8230

See here: http://www.ascii.cl/htmlcodes.htm

When you put them in a Pier page, they are properly rendered. But, when you
ask the ascii to those characters in pharo, they are >255 and they are out
of range compared to "matchTable"

Best,

Mariano
