      Hi Maurice!              04 Jun 2018 12:40, from Maurice Kinal -> Richard Menedetter:               RM>> LATIN-1 is an alias for ISO 8859-1.       MK> Wrong. LATIN1 is an alias for ISO 8859-1, amongst other aliases none        MK> of which are LATIN-1.              The fact that it is not mentioned as a gconv-module does not make my statement       wrong for Fidonet.        Take a look at FTS5003 http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5003.001              "Level 2 character sets (eight-bit, ASCII based) LATIN-1 ISO 8859-1       (Western European)"        As of why it was named LATIN-1 instead of LATIN1 I do not know.       But it makes it absolutely clear what LATIN-1 means in the context of Fidonet.         MK> The above can be verified by iana.org       The above can be verified for the Fidonet context on ftsc.org        CU, Ricsi              --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: Same to you and whatever you meant by that!
