Hey Nicholas!

 NB> Just testing another FTN apparatus that mentioned utf-8 support.

Winpoint?  I've noticed at least one in the local net that appears to get
utf-8 correctly.

 NB> Looks like it works so far!

Yep.  I think for something like quoting we appear to have a good handle on
it.  Myself I am using coreutils' fold app for the number of columns -
including multibyte and good ol' sed to do the indentation.  I believe these
tools are supplied in a cygwin enviroment (bash too!) so it *should* perform
well.

Life is good,
Maurice
