The "not" character is an EBCDIC x'5F'. It is not on the PC

It's not in ASCII but it *is* in ISO 8859-1 and similar character
sets. I believe that it's code point AC.

Ah! That explains why my PC3270 keyboard map showed Shift-6 to be "ansi ac" (whether or not "ansi" is being used correctly). ASCII doesn't define AC, and Windows maps it to "1/4" as one character.
