Yes. You would need UTF-8 activated (?) or windows-1252,
while you use us-ascii 7 bit.

PS: http://www.code-knacker.de/ansi.htm and (to be precise)
thus I avoid character any beyond Bit = 127 in coding, that
is roughly: any special "Umlaut" in language or for pretty
printing (ok, "§" = paragraph may be needed in some cases)
