You may want to refer to an ASCII chart (just google it).
Or type "man ascii" into Terminal.app (without the quotes, of course).
Wow, I didn't know that was there! However, the man page is American-centric and stops at x7F. The accented letters live in the lower part of x80-xFF.
Yes, but ASCII is a 7-bit code, hence only contains characters 0x00-0x7F. Common 8-bit codes are ISO-8859-1 and Mac Roman etc. ... so I guess it's just a matter of terms, sorry for me being pedantic here ;-).
