Howdy! Holger and Mark,

My jaw dropped when I saw High ASCII characters in this message instead
of seeing dots.

Just thought I'd pass this along to Your conversation about the use of
the ALTgr Key.

Hi everyone,

I've been hosting a Synchronet BBS for years, but due to people talking in
languagues different than English, extended ASCII characters are not displayed
or written correctly. For example: . . . . . . . .

I wonder if there is a way for Synchronet to use the right encoding. The place
where I suffer this most is in the Fidonet R34 area (Spain).

Any ideas?
