In what context is `bchr()` useful?

As a builtin, not my problem, I'm not the proponent. As a facility with *some* spelling, it's convenient in contexts where chr() is, but much less so (eg, coding ROT13 ;-). I know I've used this translation in mail hacking, but I don't recall whether the code was Python or Lisp. Regards, Steve
