Hey Benny!
BP> using nano, but i don't try 8bit yet, hehe
Your CHRS kludge claims you are using 8bit.
BP> nano is supporting idn and utf8, but utf7 would imho be what it
BP> should be for fidonet software,
I disagree. utf8 should be the default.
BP> there is no hope any fidonet software will do native html at all
Why? All that will accomplish is bloating text messages with html tags that
people like me will filter out. You can count on that. I am still using pure
text (utf8) in email. I absolutely hate html email.
If you meant to say using httpd to display msgs then it has long been a done
deal although I have yet to see anyone get proper displays working in a textual
enviroment such as a 4K display. I have been toying with this idea since
viewing a mp4 farmed out to mpv from my links text browser on a 4K monitor
deploying the linux terminal. mpv can do this using libdrm for graphical
output, with no need for a gui. Also I can split the 4k linux terminal into 4
terminals that are very close to looking like the 80x24 terminals from way back
when that was the standard size of a purely textual display. Over the course of
almost 40 years, I have never seen anything better, although the Matrox G200 was
outstanding in it's time. Things got better I am happy to report.
BP> all well ?
Little Mikey's Brain lost it's 16 penguin host machine last week. Good thing I
had a quad core backup ready to pick up the task. Up to date too,
software-wise. This standardized fidonet msg tells the tale.
Life is good,
Maurice
