I primarily wanted to maintain UTF-8        AA> characters copied into your Reformator/Quoter program no matter        AA> what language I encountered.              Well, I ask just for interest -- can you type and see a Russian text using the       windows program called "Notepad"? (It manages simple ASCII texts).               AA> Meanwhile, I learned that I can avoid copying UTF-8 characters into        AA> the Reformator/Quoter program and adjust the quoting manually.              For instance, you are on a web page with a UNICODE coding. Then, you select       some text, copy it and paste it into ASCII app like Notepad. The system must       transform UNICODE to ASCII automatically. Microsoft Windows I mean.              So, tell me -- can you paste a Russian text into Notepad Windows app.              PS: You can also describe the way how I can get the problem artificially.              Bye, August!       Alexander Koryagin       english_tutor 2020              ---        * Origin: nntps://fidonews.mine.nu - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 203/0 221/1 6 360 227/114 229/426 1014 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/1634 2100 5138 5832 5853 8001 8002 8005 249/206 317 261/38       SEEN-BY: 280/5003 5006 313/41 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/200       SEEN-BY: 382/147 423/81 2454/119       PATH: 221/1 280/5003 240/1120 5832 229/426           |
