I only quoted back what you sent, it'll look the same on your system as long as it doesn't get translated. :) > X/Unix, Win95 and Mac OS seem to use the relevant character set (iso-8859-1) > by default (although the latter two add incompatible extenstions to it). > If you are using something else you might have to search for a suitable > font. > > imc I've got just the font i want, Terminal code-page 437, just as though i wasnt using windows :) Ah but they dont apear properly on my system because I use code-page 437, because this gives me the proper DOS double-line box character set where CHR$(201)=É which is the top/left corner double-box. Just because windows wants me to use codepage 850, i dont want to, because when i connect to a BBS or something that uses hi-ansi graphincs, it looks crap. I thought mime was supposed to handle all this crap. I hate all this fancy mail rubbish, mime and html e-mail and all that stuff should be left to www were it belongs.
