Well, if it walks like a μ and quacks like a μ ....
Yes, it would be nice to get to a θ and all the other greeks,
but this is getting too far in the weeds for me. But thanks

Joke's on you--you've printed not a "Greek small letter mu" but a "micro

When I do a. i. 'mu' (can't type the mu on this limux box),
I get 194 181
This is true on my Macbook Pro for both J602 & J802.
