"The DEC 026 code is a workable mapping of the IBM 026 FORTRAN character
set to ASCII. Unfortunately, it appears to have nothing in common with
other extensions of the same character set. Given the frequency of typos in
DEC's handbooks, it is possible that the problem is with the handbook from
which this material was derived."
