Linux users may be interested in using these translation tables for iso-8859-1:

http://www.cyberiada.org/fido/files/iso_utf8.chs
http://www.cyberiada.org/fido/files/utf8_iso.chs

(The first one is the same as iso1_u8.chs from GoldEd+ GitHub repo, but with a
small change to have the correct level in the CHRS kludge. The second one is
based on Michiel's utf8_850.chs, but with the translation codes for iso-8859-1
instead of codepage 850.)

The XLAT* lines in GoldEd's configuration would be like:

XLATLOCALSET LATIN-1
XLATCHARSET LATIN-1 UTF-8 iso_utf8.chs
XLATCHARSET UTF-8 LATIN-1 utf8_iso.chs

You should set your terminal to iso-8859-1 before launching the editor.
