Whip out the Palm Computing Hardware Platform Connected Organizer of your
choice, bring up the Graffiti Help system, and scroll on down to the 5th
screen. There, you'll see characters (such as the Yen and Beta symbols)
that are not defined as being in the standard ASCII code range (0x00 -
0x7F). Rather, they are defined in the Extended character code range of
0x80 - 0xFF.
Off the top of my head, I don't know what glyph 0x8D corresponds to. But
Gremlins is free to poke character codes up to 0xFF at your application.

Subject: Question re valid character value
Below are the events that that occur right before gremlin gives me a "wrote
to low memory" error.
39.126 (725): <- EvtGetEvent: penUpEvent X:137 Y:78
39.126 (726): -> EvtEnqueueKey: ascii = 0x008D, keycode = 0x0000,
modifiers = 0x0000.
39.126 (726): <- EvtGetSysEvent: keyDownEvent Key:0x8D, Modifiers:
0x0000
39.126 (726): <- EvtGetEvent: keyDownEvent Key:0x8D, Modifiers:
0x0000
39.126 (726): -> EvtAddUniqueEventToQueue: fldChanged ID: 1102
39.146 (726): <- EvtGetEvent: fldChanged ID: 1102
I don't understand what the 0x8D key represents? I thought visible
characters that a user might enter into a field in real life would not
exceed 0x7F.
