      MSGID: 2:20/228 02dfc399       In a message on 03-05-19 Maurice Kinal said to Holger Granholm:              Hi Maurice,              Right after I had posted the previous reply I edited a bulletin that       included a letter that had to be translated from UTF to CP437 = PC8.              I knew that this letter should be the capital angstrom so I entered that       'unknown' chr as 197 to be translated to . Worked perfectly.               HG> God natt min vän              On the above line I knew of course that that coded character should be       'a' with two dots on to. To convert it I entered 195 184 to translate it                     Guten abend mein freund,              Holger              ..
