Hey Nick!

Strange.  As is 'file' shows it as 'ISO-8859 text' which I know is wrong. 
Forcing it using 'iconv -f koi8-r' shows it as 'Unicode text, UTF-8 text' and
the line in question becomes; Сильный, как бык, умный,
как трактор.  Definetly more evidence in favour of setting all
output to utf-8 given all the 8-bit character confusion and corruption.  I
believe I said that at the start of this particular thread.

Life is good,
Maurice
