Title: Use character literals for ascii-compatible code points

The code uses defines like UTF8_LINE_FEED instead of character literals like '\n'.

I understand the worry about about supporting EDCBIC systems, but those don't matter compared to the extra screen space and cognitive burden of tracking extra defines. Where the UTF-8 value is equivalent to ASCII, a character literal should be used instead.
