ZXNet echo conference «zxnet.pc»
From Vladimir Larkov → To Alex Shalin 16 September 1999
Hello, Alex!
Mon 13-Sep-99 04:51, you (2:5030/827.25) wrote a letter to Denis Ognewsky:
AS> I constantly see unreadable letters in fidosh echoes, for which I am responsible

Look at the kludges of these letters, if there is CHRS: LATIN-1, then most likely it is yours
The software engineer will convert the giblets of these letters into mush (this is how a half-and-half behaves
Fleet Street). If configuration does not help, then call a surgeon with a hex-editor,
go into your exe (for flit it’s in one of the dlls), look for this 'latin' and interrupt on,
for example 'zarin'. ;)
With best wishes, Vladimir.

It’s just customary to write on the Amiga in Windows encoding. And there are no problems there,
there are just lamers. In normally configured software there it is possible for each echo
indicate your encoding. In Amiga echoes they write in Win encoding. In the rest - in
standard PC866.
And the "PC_SUX" kludge is generally removed there in 10 seconds (and without the primitive
replacing it with something else).
PS. In general, this topic here is on the verge of offtopic.
