        In NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp, there's a "specialchar" array for
the 16 special character codes and most of them are present.  Element
7 is supposed to be an eighth note but is represented as "o/~ ".  I
couldn't find the right character to replace it but if you do, we can
stick it in that array.

        There's also a list of extended character codes (0x12
0x20-0x3F, 0x13 0x20-0x3F) that are currently ignored.  They're listed
at the end of this page:

Actually, this part looks easy enough to add so I can look into it.
