I think you just lost both readability and precision. Please keep saying "ASCII" or "US-ASCII", and then have a reference to the ANSI or ISO spec that actually defines ASCII, such as [ANSI.X3-4.1986] American National Standards Institute, "Coded Character Set - 7-bit American Standard Code for Information Interchange", ANSI X3.4, 1986. (taken from the relatively recent RFC 5322). RFC 1345 is a non-maintained, historic informational RFC that's nit really a good definition for ASCII. If you disagree, please name a single RFC that has been published in the last 20 years that uses RFC 1345 to reference ASCII (I just searched, and couldn't find any). Best regards, Julian
