These examples use the first 4 bytes, i.e. 4 {. a. . These are not
proper text anyway, since that begins at character 32. The first block
of normal text characters is (32+i.95) { a. .
How 4 {. a. displays depends on the font used, and you need to
experiment with fonts to find one that behaves as in your old system. It
may be better to avoid trying to view such characters, and instead
convert them into numbers for viewing.
