Hey Eric,
good to see you online again.

Praying you have a fantastic 2026 mate.

"5-bit era" is a bit obscure for me though... :D

Me too.

Well, I'm of the "beat" era; my daughter of the "bit" era...

Does "5-bit era" refer to:

Baudot - A 5-bit Stateful Codec:
Baudot is a Python library for encoding and decoding 5-bit stateful encoding. This library is named after Jean-Maurice-Émile Baudot (1845-1903), the French engineer who invented this code. The Baudot code was the first practical and widely used binary character encoding

The last time I used the Baudot was with a telex machine with punched paper tape, just before they became obsolete. About 1985.  :D
I still have a virgin tape.  :o
