guys,

is there anything that can take these hex triplets such as

We Don\xe2\x80\x99t

and render them back to the ascii or keyboard equivalents?
in this case, the \x99 would be an apostrophe.
thus:


We Don't

tia,

gsry

ps: even lynx -dump messes up, i believe.  i'm trying to go from
DOC  back to typewriter....
