In my reference the cent symbol is decimal 155.  Normally, I can expect to
insert special characters, such as the cent sign, by holding down the Alt
key while typing in the decimal value on the keypad. However, I note that
in VI or VIM editors that doesn't work the way I expected it to.
Furthermore, I do find that a symbol that looks like a cent symbol appears
with decimal 162 or Octal 242.  In the compose screen of PINE, it's
academic, because none of it works. I have not tried it, but theoretically, 
I could get a special character into a message in some editor and then suck 
it into Pine with the ReadFile command, but that's tedious.
