    Hej Holger!

    Thank you, a very handy table.

    Excellent. As long as the characters exactly match cp437 then I'll be happy that I have done a good job.

    I'll keep the file handy so if you notice any errors it can be corrected.

    Livet är gott,

    Hej Holger!

    God morgon vän.

    I'll will also keep it handy and may even split the table into
    three columns on A4 size paper and print it out.

    Sounds like a plan. I wasn't sure what the final layout might be so I left it as one entry per line. Also I might add the hex and utf8 codes, maybe even octal, at some point but will keep the printable characters as CP437 given that is the target audience. Again if you notice any errors let me know and we can easily rectify it given it is a simple text file. As they say in Sweden, "HÃ¥ll det enkelt dumt." :-)
