I'm using sbcl to write-char a 16-bit unsigned integer to a socket as two separate unsigned 8-bit bytes, for example 141 should appear as
#x00 #x8d.
SBCL appears to convert the #x8d into a two-byte utf-8 char, resulting in 3 bytes written to the stream
#x00 #xcd #x8d.
What is the proper incantation to achieve this? (SBCL on Windows, if that matters).
