I don't bet there is the big difference between swedish, danish and german
in special native charecters. But mine timEd at Linux works very greate
with the native charecters.. I did compile my maps with the Golded .chs
files, and it just works :)

I can zip it and put it on my BBS so it can be frequested by BinkD / ISDN.

If it works, don't fix it! (ARGHH!).
