Hey Michiel!

You sparked my interest, so I dug it up from the bottom of a drawer in my
bedroom, and no. None of the names on my birth certificate have it (they all
look to be typed with a typewriter), except for my mother's signature. :)

Thanks!

Perfect. I guess I never turned that off, either. I just set up another link
to it at some point when your system went down.

Maybe. If I can figure out a good way to send it up the chain of clerks. :)

Noted.

I'll see what happens, I suppose.

Understood. Here it still looks like it is CP437.

Mainly for the CLI, yes. And that is why I chose what I did so that most, if
not all of my CLI based Fidonet software works with UTF-8 and IPv6. If it
didn't at first, it definitely does now! ;)
