Ok, I get it. Thank you for your explanation.
These two characters, especially the (inverted) opening question mark, are necessary in Spanish. So, right now Golded with utf-8 is not a good choice for writing. However it's nice that we can at least read utf-8 messages properly thanks to your other .chs file.
