We should find out whether this is officially the case according to the specs of ASCII. We aren't required to obey that spec, but we should at least think about doing so.
This page from ASA standard X3.4-1963 shows that 0 and 127 are part of ASCII, although some of the characters in between weren't defined at the time: http://www.wps.com/projects/codes/X3.4-1963/page5.JPG The other pages are here: http://www.wps.com/projects/codes/X3.4-1963/ See also http://www.wps.com/projects/codes/Revised-ASCII/page1.JPG, the "revised US ASCII code (X3.4-1967)" specification which includes lowercase characters. It shows all 128 characters (0 through 127) as being part of the ASCII code. The other pages are here: http://www.wps.com/projects/codes/Revised-ASCII/
