I already noted that most latex installations do not handle the full range of characters. Even if it handled \0177 is would almost certainly fail on the subsequent test lines. > I looked at the output in gvim and saw > > ...z{|}~}} > > the third last character which appears as ^? in gvim but may be another > glyph in your mail viewer.

IMHO one goal of the demos is to provide a set of unit tests. The idea is to exercise everything and find out what may not be working on the system where the test is run. It's kind of pointless to remove a test just because it succeeds in indicating a point of failure. Ethan |
