È vs ╚

Lucky for me I don't encounter any of these character problems when ordering PIZZA in QB64.

P È T È 

Hi Pete,

Hummm... Pizza and little else... What have we done to deserve all this?  

Anyway, yes. PIZZA has no accents, and I understand that it may have been an advantage for its spread 

Around, I see languages with accented letters in ways that only a perverse imagination could conceive... Perhaps it depends on the incomprehensible sounds that the vocal cords are forced to emit (risking getting tangled). The Italian language is quite complicated, but the sound is smooth, sleek, and linear... few accents are needed.

The "È" is probably the only accented uppercase letter that can start a sentence in Italian. I understand that ASCII and UNICODE coders didn't put in much effort...   

I wonder what pizza you have in your area... I would be curious to taste it.

Anyway, even from these details, it's clear that you are a cornerstone of QB64 and a great programmer: I couldn't manage to order pizza via QB64; it's already a lot for me to try to handle the Fonts
