   I got your netmail and I am afraid I can not be of much help. Except maybe for   
   this:   
      
   Many years ago - on my request - in order to produce a proper "UTF-8 4" kludge   
   line an optional second parameter was added to the level number line in the   
   .chs file. My 850_utf8.chs file starts with this:   
      
   4                 ; ID number   
   1                 ; version number   
      
   2 4               ; level number   
      
   CP850             ; from set   
   UTF-8             ; to set   
      
   Note the "2 4" in the third non comment line. The '2' is to signal that the   
   actual tranlsation is a level 2 operation. The '4' is the level to present in   
   the CHRS kludge line.   
      
   As this was added many, many years ago I expect it to be present in your   
   Golded versions as well.   
      
   Hope this helps.   
      
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
