On a vt100 terminal, I'm seeing a lot of numbers preceeded by
backslashes; like this:
--\244\272\260`\260\272\344\370,\270\270,\370\244\272\260\244\272\260`\260\272\344\370,\270\270,\370\244\272\260`\244\272\260`\260\272\344\370,\270\270,\370\244\272\260
:-(
>:-> (<-- that's not my suggestion, btw; it's a smiley for "devil's
advocate". But I've always had a fondness for the "cut-here"
ideograms for a pair of scissors, in the olden days before MIME; I
don't know if that methaphor applies, though (and they nest quite nicely):
--8<--
--8<--8<--
