      REPLY: 1:1/123.0 5CC4043D       MSGID: 2:280/464.113 5cc47d13       Hallo Ozz!               ON> The challenge is, how common is it for the end user to know their        ON> CodePage?              I'd say the odds are against you. The safest bet is to stick with 7 bit ascii       codes in text messaging, but then where is the fun in that?               ON> just wonder if there is a way to detect their Terminal CodePage.              I know that and half-decent telnet clients used to report columns and lines to       the mothership it was connecting to. Also I believe web servers such as       Apache can and will obtain that sort of information from clients using cgi       scripts and the such.               ON> which won't work on Dial-up.. and I have been asked to keep        ON> Dial-up in the next release              Understood. I haven't used dialup in at least 20 plus years now. If I am not       mistaken my last dialup BBS (DOS Maximus) was in 1996-ish.              Het leven is goed,       Maurice              ...
