Hi Maurice!

04 Jun 2018 12:40, from Maurice Kinal -> Richard Menedetter:

 RM>> LATIN-1 is an alias for ISO 8859-1.
MK> Wrong.  LATIN1 is an alias for ISO 8859-1, amongst other aliases none
 MK> of which are LATIN-1.

The fact that it is not mentioned as a gconv-module does not make my statement
wrong for Fidonet. 
Take a look at FTS5003 http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5003.001

"Level 2 character sets (eight-bit, ASCII based) LATIN-1     ISO 8859-1
(Western European)" 
As of why it was named LATIN-1 instead of LATIN1 I do not know.
But it makes it absolutely clear what LATIN-1 means in the context of Fidonet. 
 MK> The above can be verified by iana.org
The above can be verified for the Fidonet context on ftsc.org 
CU, Ricsi
