   Hi, August Abolins! ->Alexander Koryagin   
   I read your message from 06.02.2020 02:26   
      
    AK>> PS: Have you solved the problem with Russian text copy pasting?   
      
    AA> No. It is not critical. I primarily wanted to maintain UTF-8

    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!
