Bad Character

Hello

I received responce which surprised me.

"The ellipsis does not exist in ASCII or Latin-1 - but it does exist in
Windows-1252, which is a"

The ellipsis is the char given in AppleScript by ASCII character (201) and I was said here some months ago that the AppleScript's set is MacRoman.
This char is also diven in AppleWorks 6 by char(201) and AppleWorks was also described as using MacRoman.


Looking at

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacRoman

one may see this ellipsis at $C9 (aka decimal 201).

I always uses Mail.app in its standard settings. So I'm very surprised.

Maybe the explanation is that in Mail.app, the menu item

Message > Encoding > Occidental (Mac OS Roman) is always greyed.

Oops, I apologize, while checking the menu item wording I clicked on "Send" so you got a partial message.
