I'm old enough to *know* that anything beyond 7bit ASCII is a no no
for a programming language. Esp when terminals are in the way (my
minicom is very dependent on LANG settings in what it sends to
the controller, in German there are a few such characters like öäü).

So I take the freedom and declare the "implementation defined" part as
"may or may not work, good luck".
