Back in the early 1980's, I grew up on 8-bit processors and latin-1 was all we had for ASCII. Over the last several days from reading this thread (and variations thereof), l've seen several extended characters that I have no clue on how to reproduce on my keyboard. I haven't embraced extended character sets yet, which means I still think of ASCII characters as being 0 through 255 (8-bit).
