   seems that way... this is one of those times that i kinda (!) wish i was a C   
   coder... if i was, i could fix what TimED needs to have fixed... even the y2k   
   date stuff... but :(   
      
   from what i can see, there really should be a reverse translation   
   capability... much software currently allows for translation from IBMPC, CPxxx   
   to UTF-8 but nothing goes the other way... there's not even anything that   
   allows for conversion back from UTF-8 to multiple characters like was used in   
   numerous other languages in recent years... sure the tables could be built but   
   no one seems to want to do that... at least, none of those in the know about   
   such stuff... everyone seems to want to "cop out" to the simple life... so who   
   am i to try to bring forth anything compatible to the past? :( :?
