The TRS-80 MOD I could not produce on screen the "[,]" characters,
but displayed arrows instead.   The MOD I's ASCII was not quite
ASCII, so if a file was printed to a lineprinter, the up arrow
would translate to a "[".   The "[" then means Raised to the Power
which on most systems is "^" or "**".   The TRS-80 MOD III did not
have this problem, was REAL ASCII, but could not display arrows without
mucking about.

Cheers,
Gern
