If you give a nice name to ascii_guill I'd think that the code could
be even clearer than it is now.

I am not sure that you can have you cake and eat it at all times...
unicode is more cumbersome to work with.

ostringstream will be a challenge...
(or perhaps not... we might be able to create a odocstringstream kindo
thing easily.)

I hope so.
