    ml> this last line doesn't exist in the original xlat file from the    
    ml> jamnntpd archive...   
      
    BF>    My xlat file doesn't look anything like the original one. 8-)    
      
   i believe that ;)   
      
   mine didn't either when i started messing around with trying to support UTF-8   
   as well as the existing formats... i finally had to dump it all and go back   
   the the original xlat file that i started with to get things working properly   
   again...   
      
    BF>    During the soon to be ten years I've dabbled with this, I've   
    BF> done numerous experiments with the xlat function. Still a process   
    BF> in progress...    
      
   i can understand that...   
      
   FWIW: i've also just posted a question in the GOLDED echo to see if the chs   
   file format has changed since 2005... my thought is that if the format has not   
   changed, then we could refresh our chs files from the GOLDED repository... for   
   one thing, this should make more chs files available than the 8 standard and 5   
   unicode ones that come with jamnntpd...   
      
   the idea is that not only are 437<->ISO needed but also 437<->850, 437<->865,   
   850<->865, etc are needed as well... unless there's a double xlat being done   
   where each is first xlated to ISO (for instance) and then xlated from that to   
   the destination chrs...
