David,

Thanks a lot. Good stuff for my current needs (BTW, the URL
needs to have the terminating 'l' dropped).

However, now I'm getting confused. In my original note (see
below) I mentioned 13 variant characters. Now, I cannot find
my original source for that list and in the meantime someone
pointed me to the C/C++ Programming Guide which lists a
slightly different set of characters: [ ] { } \ ^ ~ ! # | ` $ @

Do you have any insights on this?

Kind regards,

-Steve Comstock
