   Thanks for your help and from the help of Andy, where I want to be very   
   clear that I've never really understood this charset header stuff. :(   
      
   What I'll do, moving forward, is when I copy from another source, I will   
   run it thru my macro (see other post with the macro) to clean it up.   
      
   That way the text I post will always be clean ASCII using only the   
   95 keyboard characters, so the charset header line won't matter.   
      
   I need to figure out (later) how to script it so that everything   
   I submit thru telnet to the nntp server goes thru the conversion.   
      
   But for now, what I can do is this (ugly) sequence:   
    control+x (copy the text from the news article)   
    Win+n (bring up Notepad++ using the App Paths registry key)   
    control+v (paste the text from the news article into Notepad++)   
    control+a (if it's not already all selected)   
    control+b (convert it by running the macro provided in this thread)   
    control+x (cut it out of Notepad++)   
    control+v (paste it back into gVim)   
    control+s (send the gVim text to Usenet via telnet to my nntp server)   
      
   It's actually not so bad because it's just button taps.   
   But I agree when I control-send from gVim, I should just run it   
   thru the conversion sequence at that point in time.   
      
   That's for later, as every time I touch my scripts, I break something.   
   But thanks to you and Andy for helping out, as I care about it all.
