Since this is a Mac-specific thing (and Classic-originated at that), I think you can be pretty sure that any non-ASCII value is to be interpreted according to the Macintosh character set, if it's meant to be a character at all.

Please understand that there is no such thing as "the Macintosh character set".

Somebody else gave already the correct answer: these codes are commonly interpreted as MacRoman.

Regards, Martin
