Hellwig and Jörg,

Thanks for your replies.  With fog dispersed, the mountainous scenery 
is pleasant.  =8~)

Incorporating your explanations into the wikibook.  Criticisms always 
welcome.

Haven't found a good explanation of that in 
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/X86_Assembly/ .
It is rated only half finished.  DB may be something to add.

Characters above 127X are not in 
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Oberon/ETH_Oberon/2003-01-05/Input.Mod 
yet.  Will fix that.  Ideally the translation should be handled 
automatically in MediaWiki.Mod.  (When I think MediaWiki.Mod is 
finished another deficiency appears.)

Thanks again,                    ... P.
