Hello,

I am having a little problem with Plucker and I'm not sure where it is
coming from.  It could be the viewer, the parser, or even my Python
installation.

Here are the symptoms and I'll let you guys point me in the correct
direction.

My HTML file has some special characters in it.  In particular, it has
“ and ” in several places.

When I pluck and load that document in the viewer these display as
“ and ”

Obviously I'd rather see these as the left and right double quote
marks or at worst have them replaced with straight up double quotes.

I know that the parser is getting those values from Python's
htmlentitydefs module.  And obviously the viewer doesn't know how to
display those.

Should the parser be replacing them with the correct character from
the Palm's character set?  Or should the viewer be able to display
these entities?  Or should htmlentitydefs be returning a high-ascii
character and be done with it?

I'm using python 2.0 on SuSE 72, Plucker viewer 1.2beta12, and I'm not
sure which release of the Plucker parser, but TextParser.py is 1.17.
