In copying some code off a web page tutorial, I have managed to embed

Nope - there are a lot of encodings listed - but plain (lossy) ascii
isn't one of them.

This sucks. I'm going to have to retype the whole 2 pages of code by
hand because no utility I can find will save the text as lossy ascii.

The free version of BBEdit includes a "Convert to ASCII" tool.

For that matter, something like this from the command line should work:

perl -i.bak -pe 'tr[\200-\377][ ]' filename.java
