Summary: wikipedia.py:html2unicode : html chars from #128 to #159
Initial Comment:
Codepoints from #128 to #159 are unused in both ISO-8859-1 and Unicode, hence html
entities numbered in this range *are* illegal.
But the fact is that a lot of websites do use these characters, our browsers now all print
these characters, and some of these entities can be found on our wikis.
I found this working on a page containing #155 ( › ) : html2unicode would convert it to
unichr(155), which is , way more unfit than the previous one. (Yes, actually that's
the result you get on a wiki page)
#128, which produces €, was also being converted to unichr(128)... ()
Cheers,
Nicolas Dumazet.
