   Hi Nicholas,

   Am I? But indeed it takes effort to get your terminals, locale, and charset   
   settings just right.   
      
   And there are limitations. You can't display utf correctly. And you have to   
   choose a native charset. Any character not supported by the charset, can't be   
   displayed correctly. I can probably not view Russian messages correctly for   
   instance...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
