Hi Maurice!

    MK> LATIN-1.   
      
   I agree that having widely available UTF-8 support in Fidonet software would   
   be very nice.   
   Sadly that is not the case.   
   Most software used is incapable of displaying UTF-8 characters correctly.   
   (Mostly due to the software being written before UTF-8 was standardized.)   
      
   And the kludge   
   @CHRS: LATIN-1 2   
   is NOT poorly identified, it is clearly stated that this character set is to   
   be used:   
   "ISO 8859-1 (Western European)"
