OCR: NewsWatcher 2.0 Appendix C Character Sets News Watcher uses the Latin-1 character set (ISO 8859 1). All 8 bit (non- US ASCII) characters in articles are conv verted from Latin- to the Mac character set before being displayed. and all bit characters in messages are converted from the Mac character set to Latin-1 before being posted or mailed This simple Latin-1 support IS by no means complete solution to all character set prob lems. Indeed. the simple Latin-1 in this version not MIME- -conformant. There no MIME header bit character encoding and there is no MIME body bit printable or base64 encoding. NewsWatcher does not include any MIME headers in messages if posts or mails, and does not recognize any MIME headers in articles it displays. 125
