Ärende: CHRS kludge implementations
===================================

The editor I was using doesn't matter. The fact that I was writing messages 
with multibyte characters in them while using a level 2 CHRS kludge was the 
problem.

Oddly enough, you told me via netmail that it was the message reading tables 
that translate TO UTF-8 that were the culprit, which was wrong. As soon as I 
made a utf8_utf8.chs that included a level 4 with absolutely no translations 
whatsoever, by golly it worked. :)

When I had asked you originally if it was your utf8_850.chs that was 
using the level 4 kludge, you said no. So I was provided with false 
information, and then completely ignored afterwards.. so I brought it here. 
Now you seem to be trying to push conversation regarding FTSC docments and 
following standards out of the FTSC_PUBLIC echo. I find that somewhat odd, but 
whatever.

See above. Just because I mentioned the editor I was using, doesn't mean the 
topic was about the editor. I know it's blasphemy to do any kind of 
kind-hearted discussions in your echos (even if they are on topic, 
apparantly), so I'm sorry about that, and now I'm finished discussing it. 

Thank you for at least waiting till the *very end* of the entire week or 
two's worth of good international conversation (without argument, I might 
add) to finally drop the iron fist, though. 

So to get back into the swing of things, what's next on the FTSC's todo list? 
The public wants to know!

Regards,
Nick
