Aristides,

I figure 252(10)=11111100(2) and
63(10)=00111111(2) in binary form both.

Now a double byte is 16 bits not 8 bits and Unicode is a 16 bit system going to 2^15=65535(10) characters in the set requesting a double byte notation.
The example given does not require a double byte (only first 256 chars?) but is this reversing of the binary value having any mean to you (according to your code)?

George
