To be fair, this is AppleScript's fault, not Luther's. Until AS 2.0
came along, "ASCII number" and "ASCII character" were the only
built-in commands for converting between numeric and string
representations of characters, and they were not limited to 0-127, but
were dependent upon the character s et/encoding in use (e.g. MacRoman
in English locales).
Now we have "(character )id" instead, which is better, although still
subject to possible confusion due to the the different possible
meanings of "character" in a Unicode context.
