Hallo Kees!
KvE> Kludges are only there to cover deficiencies.
One thing for sure is that they don't solve anything and more often create more
deficiencies. The lack of a '+' character for offsets east of prime meridian
is a case in point as well as the so-called level in the CHRS kludge. However
I do see a need for identification of the 8 bit character sets although I wish
the FTSC would have used proper aliases as given by those who own them. LATIN1
is a very good example.

They stole my line!!! Tsk, tsk. I did see somewhere that someone
unsuccessfully tried to sue over palagerism.
KvE> Geef mij maar een bord balkenbrij.
Your loss. It remains the best editor ever created, although when I first
encountered vi I absolutely hated it. That was a very long time ago in a land
far, far away.
Het leven is goed,
Maurice
