If you look in the output directory, it's not supposed to
compile---it's supposed to produce error messages.

There is no default case, so you did do something wrong---you need
either to assert a limited set of ranges on the switch, or give all
the missing values in the case.  Example

   case 0..83, 85, 85, 88..99, 101..115, 117, 118, 120..255:


I never should have let the Nameless One talk me into a switch statement :-)
