Notice how less and less gibberish prefixes the option characters as

that, but whatever it is, I'm convinced it is at the root of my
problem. Joe, the copyright symbol © is commonly used and IMO it's a
real limitation if RB can't handle these key combination characters
which have ASC numbers above 127.
ASCII is only defined of 0 through 127. And the copyright symbol is not
a key combination. It is a glyph in a font. It happens to be that on
the Mac you can produce that glyph with a key combination. That is
nothing more than a convenience. The same trick doesn't even work on
Windows. But when you produce the glyph with a key combination, you
still are getting whatever encoding your string happens to be in, which
is most likely UTF8.
There is no "key combination" bug in REALbasic. It is working perfectly
fine.
