Hi Maurice!

I agree that having widely available UTF-8 support in Fidonet software would be
 very nice.
Sadly that is not the case.
Most software used is incapable of displaying UTF-8 characters correctly.
(Mostly due to the software being written before UTF-8 was standardized.)

And the kludge
@CHRS: LATIN-1 2
is NOT poorly identified, it is clearly stated that this character set is to be
 used:
"ISO 8859-1 (Western European)"
