* PI and PI/open Extended Character Set - External
* This swaps the mark characters with 5 control characters in the C0
* range, so that the positions normally occupied by marks can be used
* as printing characters, as follows (using ISO8859/1 descriptions):
*
* Internally: Externally:
*
* ^Z (SUB) 0x1A = u-circumflex Text mark
* ^\ (FS) 0x1C = u-diaeresis Subvalue mark
* ^] (GS) 0x1D = y-acute Value mark
* ^^ (RS) 0x1E = thorn Field mark
* ^_ (US) 0x1F = y-diaeresis Item mark
*
* This map can be used on external data that is known to be in the PI/open
* character set and known to contain the 5 mapped characters mentioned
* (for example, records in type 1 files, or GCI string arguments).
* See also the table PIECS for a mapping of the PI/open character
* as it applies to internal data (for example, in dynamic hashed files).
