   Hej Nick!   
      
   > set assumed_charset = "ibm437"   
      
   Which according to IANA is the real name for that code page.  I think sticking   
   to real names is preferable given that fts-5003.001 has been seriously   
   corrupted.  Same could be said for fts-4008.002 (timezone) but that's another   
   sad story amongst the many obvious flaws that continue to plague fidonet.   
      
   > Incoming cp437 is still translates correctly by iconv   
      
   Yep.  cp437 is a legitimate alias.   
      
   > This one will probably go out as ascii   
      
   That is what I see.  Near as I can tell my reply to you is also ascii but   
   given that 7-bit ascii is part of utf-8 this isn't really an issue as this   
   reply is evidence of.

   Excellent!  links should also work straight out of the box.  I have both here.
