Re: digraph_get('NU') returns 0xA

thank you for the explanation! from the perspective of interpreting the output of digraph_get*() functions, would this be the case any time it returns 0x0A, or is this a special case for "NU"?

Since the NUL byte terminates a string in C, it is internally replaced
with NL, 0x0A.  When written to a file it is changed back to a NUL.
I most places you don't notice this, but sometimes it does.
