Hello Nicholas,

On Saturday November 04 2023 10:48, you wrote to golded+ inspector:

I got your netmail and I am afraid I can not be of much help. Except maybe for
this:

Many years ago - on my request - in order to produce a proper "UTF-8 4" kludge
line an optional second parameter was added to the level number line in the
.chs file. My 850_utf8.chs file starts with this:

4                 ; ID number
1                 ; version number
;
2 4               ; level number
;
CP850             ; from set
UTF-8             ; to set

Note the "2 4" in the third non comment line. The '2' is to signal that the
actual tranlsation is a level 2 operation. The '4' is the level to present in
the CHRS kludge line.

As this was added many, many years ago I expect it to be present in your
Golded versions as well.

Hope this helps.



Cheers, Michiel
