None of the names on my birth certificate have it (they all       look to be typed with a typewriter), except for my mother's signature. :)               > Done.

I guess I never turned that off, either. I just set up another link       to it at some point when your system went down.               > So you could be the first...              Maybe. If I can figure out a good way to send it up the chain of clerks. :)               > Naming conventions here in Z2 for Region and net segments are UTFRxx and        > UTFNyyy.

In the CLI of Windows 10, the default is still CP850.              Understood. Here it still looks like it is CP437.               NB>> As for Linux, ISO-8859-1 may have been popular at some        NB>> point, but these days most distributions are installed with UTF-8        NB>> as the default (which is a good thing, IMO).               > Also for he CLI?

And that is why I chose what I did so that most, if       not all of my CLI based Fidonet software works with UTF-8 and IPv6. If it       didn't at first, it definitely does now! ;)              Regards,       Nick              ...
