Hey Tony!

 TL> wonder if Mystic will do it, it does understand UTF-8.

As long as is doesn't use CP437 line drawing characters then it should be
alright or at least heading in the right direction.  Also correct screen
dimensions would be nice but not as critical as the getting the character
set(s) correct.  Most BBSes still think CP437 (ie DOS-thin) and have the
aduacity to call it 'upper ascii' or 'higher ascii' or other such nonsense.

Kids these days.  :::sigh:::

Life is good,
Maurice
