Hi,

Im using GEM for some typographic visualisations and need an extended
set of characters, at least the first 256 of the roman standard. It
appears that the symbol object supports a bunch (like 8 bit). Im
loading the content from an external text file and I need to use
[l2s] together with [ascseq] to split the text into individual
symbols. Obviously there's a catch with using [ascseq] as its a
limited character set set. But it appears that [list] or [textfile]
also has the same limitation (like 7 bit). Is this intended and is
there a workaround?

Im using HC's PD-039.2 extended test 4

Thanks, Timon
