Hey Ozz!

 ON> Wikipedia's CP437 html uses invalid UTF-8 codes to represent the
 ON> high-bit DOS character set.

For the record do you mean https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 ?

I checked a few against the table I posted and so far noticed that 0x81, 0x82, 
and 0x83 show the proper characters as well as correct utf8 code BUT display 
the wrong hex code when highlighting the character in question.  Near as I can 
tell thus far - and I don't plan to go any further with this since I have no 
use for this information - the table I posted shows the correct hex codes and 
do match the proper utf8 codes unlike the table 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 where at least three of the hex 
codes are obviously wrong when compared to what the actual character displayed 
and the posted utf8 code for that character.

Let me know if this is a worthwhile pursuit as near as I can tell it is of zero 
consequence in the grand scheme of things, nevermind fidonet and definetly the 
bogus CHRS kludge.  :::evil grin:::

Life is good,
Maurice
