Encoding

I had to look into the source code to figure out the text format. For posterity, it's ASCII only, and for each byte, it takes the top level cons. If the car is nil, then it's an unset zero bit, and the cdr is the rest of the binary pattern. If the car is a cons, then the bit will be a set one bit, and the car will be the rest of the binary. I don't think the interpreter handles Unicode gracefully, but I haven't run it. IFcoltransG (talk) 09:08, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
