Hey Wilfred!
WvV> No your wrong, it works according to the fidonet standard.
If by "works" you mean "does nothing" then it appears to be working well since
I have yet to see or hear about any software that actually uses that flag to
make adjustments.
WvV> Keep fighting those windmills! ;)
Up to now I haven't been fighting. I've been calling it bitching. You should
be able to tell by the amount of bitching, as well as what I am bitching about,
what I am currently working on. This time it was a random tagline generator
that somehow got distracted by TZUTC flags.

WvV> That's true. Although "people" should be "software".
Okay. I think in this case the same software that is displaying a faulty CHRS
is the same software that;
WvV> I know golded can when properly configured.
If so then please explain "CHRS: UTF-8 2" with respect to FTS-5003. Also
golded corrupts utf-8 characters (same with msged) when it tries to actually
use them, with or without a CHRS flag. I haven't noticed if it makes
adjustments when it encounters a TZUTC flag. Does it?
WvV> If you don't like what they do, you should join them, so you can
WvV> change that! ;)
I'll get right on that.
Life is good,
Maurice
