Not quite correct but closer to the truth.              There is trick to make it "UTF-8 4". See my message.               AI> All of my terminals here are UTF-8 although I don't see UTF-8        AI> correctly in any of my readers, not on the BBS or when reading with        AI> golded.              Golded has its limits and do do many other Fidonet readers when it comes to       UTF-8.              Goated and Gosiped do it right.               AI> I can setup golded to use an external editor and when I hit reply I        AI> see the UTF-8 characters correctly.              So can I. I use Winvi for that. But it has other issues...               MV>> But oddly enough Synchronat BBS anwers in CP437 when quote        MV>> replying to an UTF-8 encoded message...               AI> Synchronet is generally good about the CHRS kludge but I guess it        AI> doesn't look at the encoding of the reply. Perhaps it needs to be        AI> looked at.              yeah...                     Cheers, Michiel              --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20170303        * Origin: http://www.vlist.eu (2:280/5555)       SEEN-BY: 106/201 114/705 123/120 124/5016 153/757 7715 154/10 203/0       SEEN-BY: 218/700 840 220/70 221/0 6 226/17 30 227/114 229/111 112       SEEN-BY: 229/113 307 317 426 428 470 700 240/1120 5832 250/5 8 267/800       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 5555 292/854 8125 298/25 301/1 305/3 310/31       SEEN-BY: 317/3 320/219 341/66 234 410/9 423/120 460/58 712/848 770/1       SEEN-BY: 770/100 340 772/210 220 230 5019/40 5020/1042 12000       PATH: 280/5555 464 770/1 317/3 229/426           |
