Yes I think this is the correct use of the Jim's funcs, 
 after selection as region 
of the text to convert ; I think that the problem is that 
some funny 8 bit chars in the jym.de8 func body got lost in the 
journey from jim's HD to ours HDs :(


for example I got the piece

     ...
     ("" "`")
     ("" "``")                        ; = 0x93
     ("" "''")                        ; = 0x94
     ("" "*")
     ("" "-")                        ; = 0x96
     ("" "--")                        ; = 0x97
     ("" "`")
     ("" "'")
     ...

, whith that strange empties "" .


Could you quote that chars for us Jim ? for example, 
octally saying \044 for the dollar sign etc ? 
We type all back at our PCs.
