- This is a language? It shows up as garbage characters in the IBM PC
- line drawing set on my screen. It doesn't seem unreasonable to ask
- people to post using text in a text-only transmission medium. That
- almost appears to be a requirement. If it is in a non-English language,
- it still shows up as garbage. Maybe other people using this language
- have special decoders, but limiting the readability of the message to
- them doesn't seem like a good way to get an answer to a question! If
- there is some special formatting or something, a mime message or
- uuecoding should be used.
