Summary: COMI: ASCII 0xb (11) not handled

Initial Comment:
In the german LANGUAGE.TAB file, in some strings the ASCII 
char 0xb (11) occurs. Historicaly, this is the "VT" (Vertical 
Tabulator) character.

ScummVM doesn't do anything to handle this char. Hence it 
is printed as a square (the symbol for unmapped chars). My 
guess is that in the original this string is treated somehow 
specially. However I have idea how exactly, since I can't run 
the original COMI myself.

A place to trigger this (the place I noticed it first) is in room 
53. When Guybrush enters it the first time and sees Elain, 
he says:
 "HANG...ON...HONEY! 
I'M...GOING...TO...GET...YOU...OUT...OF...THIS...MESS" 
(string ID "BMGT302"). The translated version contains ascii 
11.
(The savegame on bug #809942 is really close to that spot, 
BTW).

It would be good if somebody with the original game could 
make a screenshot of how this is supposed to look, so we 
can find out what to do...
