And to complicate things (or simplify them, depending on how you look at it), there really isn't such a thing as "high ASCII". ASCII is the set of characters from 0 to 127. For everything else, you need to have a specific character set in mind. So, for example, ISOLatin1 is going to map to different characters in the range between 128 and 255 than, say, MacRoman is.
