FORTRAN, Character Sets, DEC Multinational

 *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  The ASCII character set comprises the first half of the DEC
  Multinational Character Set.  The following table represents the
  second half of the DEC Multinational Character Set (characters with
  decimal values 128 through 255).  These characters cannot be output
  on some older terminals and printers.  Note that the characters
  with names are nonprintable.

  To determine the hexadecimal value of an ASCII character, combine
  the values in the column (8-F) and the row (0-F) that relate to the
  character.  For example, the value of the character representing
  the pound sterling sign is A3(hex).
