With 'removed' I mean: "replaced by the actual character". So " " 
becomes a " " (SPACE) in the output, ">" become a ">". This is not 
what I want. Not because of visualization in an HTML client, but because 
I have to be able to map the output of the XLS back to some original 
input which contains the ">", " ", etc. I basically just want to 
keep the character encodings from the input in the output.
