[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Eli,

Apologies for my previous rambling reply. Your time is supremely

allow me this mulligan (ahem):

Yes.

> Does emitting the single byte \330 produce the correct result in this

Yes.

I have updated my changes to reflect this.

> And those [tor/ssh] expect Latin-1 encoding in this case?

Yes.

When you've got a sec, please instruct me on how best to proceed (even
if that means buggering off 'til I've learned more about Emacs!). :)

Appreciate your patience, as always.
J.P.
