Hi Nicholas,

I'll keep an eye on the STATS area, so if it becomes unreadable because of
tmux, that won't do for me...

If the -c option worked, I would have considered using tmux by default from my
golded start script. But it's nice to have this option when I want/need to read
messages with utf8... ;)

Bye, Wilfred.
