At the moment I'm using the latest golded sources with the latest hpt and
binkd sources as well. I'm running Archlinux and use golded in the console.
Outgoing UTF-8 seems to work just fine. The only current issue is that
there's no translation from UTF-8 to all the other used charsets.

I have cp1125, cp437, cp850, cp865, cp866, and koi8-r all translating to
utf-8 at the moment, thanks to what's currently in the charset directory,
but nothing has been translated back from utf-8.

Is there any reference out there on how to make these .chs files using the
site they're usually gotten from? Some kind of table maybe that shows how
to translate say: 0x0001 to \d1 and/or what they actually mean?

I'm not a programmer, but if shown a nice method of doing this, I wouldn't
mind attempting to translate utf-8 to the more heavily used charsets in
Fidonet (ibmpc, 437, 850, 866, koi8-r, etc).

Or does more need to be done 'code-wise' to accomplish this?

Sorry, I replied to an already started thread here, but this could be moved
to the GOLDED echo if you wish.

Regards,
Nick
