Hello,

First of, this isn't really a BSD question.
Second, if you have an example code we might be able to help.
Presumably, you want to read a capital C with cedille? (0x80 128 =C7)
Example from: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdio/getchar/=

compiled on FreeBSD 7.2 with gcc 4.2.1 output:
"
Enter text. Include a dot ('.') in a sentence to exit:
sfeo
sfeo
=C7sdfa
=C7sdfa
"
besides.. 0x80!=3D0200
it's 0200 octal which is 128 decimal...
Might be why it doesn't work for you.
Greetz,
Mark
