Thank you for spotting this.  I fixed it in CVS.

John: my fix contains the fancy expression

    re.sub(r"[^ -~\n]", lambda x: r"\%03o"%ord(x.group()), s)

to quote all non-ASCII characters.  Is this safe with all supported
Python versions or do I need to be more portable here?

All the best,
Jochen
