      Hi! Björn,              In a message to Benny Pedersen you wrote:               BF> I for one know that you are an expert on many of the things        BF> related to this, and would love to see you compile your own version        BF> of it -- and maybe even be able to fix some of the well known,        BF> remaining problems. Mostly the ones related to character translation.              Case in point: young Alexander initially had trouble POST-ing using his       Fidolook-enhanced Outlook Express. It seems that it uses a fixed charset that       he calls KOI-8r. My JamNNTPd servers are configured in the ~xlat file to       convert such posts to CP866, thusly...               --- 8< ---        post koi8-r CP866 koi_866.chs         --- 8< ---              Is it likely that it's a simple pattern-match mis-match that's at fault? If       so, then a companion line stipulating "koi-8r" might fix it?              What do you think?              Cheers,       Paul.              ... I don't do drugs. I get the same effect just standing up fast.       --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox        * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384)    |
