+/* Note: Entering international characters from the command prompt does not always
+   produce the required output. Zint assumes that the text is extended ASCII already
+   whereas the default system (on OpenSUSE 11.0 at least) is UTF-8. This example
+   shows a basic example of how you can produce barcodes with sensible
+   extended ASCII content. */
