char vs unsigned char is a tougher and more annoying question.

:-( If I lived in java, I suspect I would have a good idea of exactly how I would want it and would just change all of it to match. As it is, I don't have a good sense of exactly what formulation I like and why... so... I've opted to do as little damage as possible.
