This is the part that has always confused me. At what point does text encoded in a vendor's private-use extension to Shift-JIS become "Shift-JIS encoded text"? Because I know for sure that I'm not supposed to refer to characters assigned to the Unicode PUA, my own or anyone else's, as being "encoded in Unicode." -- Doug Ewell | Thornton, Colorado, USA http://www.ewellic.org | @DougEwell
