0x8b correctly encodes to ‹, but 0x9b was mistakenly marked as a control character instead of ›.

Hello! It is very interesting to see someone using PalmOS! IIRC the last release was years ago. You need to sign the CLA to allow us to merge your pr. I'm not quite sure what to label this, I guess it could just be skip-news/issue and I'm curious as to what Benedikt will pick. |
Thanks for the PR! This is a user-facing change, so an issue and news entry would be appropriate. I'd recommend opening a new issue with what you wrote here --#106326 is somewhat different. You can refer tohttps://devguide.python.org/getting-started/pull-request-lifecycle/ for more info |
I'm not Benedikt, but this looks like it needs both an issue and news entry. We probably also want a test case. |
Will do. |

The current encodings also maps 0x9d and 0x9e to ''. The chart shows a diagonal line an gamma-like loop, both with arrows? at the lower left. Should this be fixed also, or are these too far from any unicode chars? @ZeroIntensity I am not familiar with codec tests; what would a test look like? This is not a calculated result. |
I misunderstood the original issue. You're right, this isn't really testable. |

Those are both proprietary Palm OS icons which don't exist in Unicode, so I think they're fine as-is. (To elaborate, they should actually never appear in text data: both icons are temporarily displayed as input hints until another letter is entered. Kinda like a keyboard shortcut, but for handwriting input. The dot in the corner indicates where to start writing the symbol.) |
