Char 156 in Ascii, 163 in ANSI. If your document is intended for online (HTML)
publication, you want 163.

You should obtain a table of all the characters, e.g. at
 http://www.xywrite.com/xy4/xy4supp/CHARSET.zip
CHARSET is formatted for Xy4, but works in Xy3+ too (ignore some formatting
errors at TopOfFile). No matter what codepage (character set) you're using,
you can see which characters are available to you, and determine their
character numbers.
