[Gambas-user] non printable char "Ⱶ" how to remove from string!!!!!

[ML]

All,

I might be utterly wrong, but since Linux normally uses UTF-8, any
high-bit-set char may be interpreted as one of the "multibyte char" flags.
If isprint() takes this into account, then it's dead right that char by
itself is not printable!

Hope that helps and makes sense...
