Hello

This is an typo in the word "string", just reporting as perhaps it could show £
correctly, as it does on line 10 error. Perhaps could also show the stray bytes
in hex as well? ie "0xF3C2"

$ g++ -Wall -o string string.cpp
string.cpp:8:7: error: stray ‘\302’ in program
     st��ing buf;
       ^
string.cpp:8:8: error: stray ‘\243’ in program
     st��ing buf;
        ^
string.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
string.cpp:8:5: error: ‘st’ was not declared in this scope
     st£ing buf;
     ^~
string.cpp:10:5: error: ‘buf2’ was not declared in this scope
     buf2 = "£"
     ^~~~



// g++ -Wall -o string string.cpp
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    st£ing buf;

    buf = "£"
}
