List:
I'm working with some old media that has Swedish text on it. (8" SS FM
disks with 4 sectors of 1024 bytes per track--no OS or file structure on
it).
I can probably figure out the structural details that I need with the
exception of modern Unicode or UTF-8 characters corresponding to what's
on the disk.
Here's a binary dump sample of such a record (LIST format):
It could be FE=diaresis and FA = ring as an accent.
A common swedish 7 bit encoding used the '{}' reservation for thoose
characters in our alphabet that english doesn't have.

Note the characters FA and FE in this sample. From what system does the disks come ?
