[gopher] Handling of ISO-8859-* character sets
Hello,
Before I run the risk of making a fool of myself and open a bug report
that should not be opened, I need to know if someone of you can and is
willing to give me an idea on how are ISO-8859 character sets handled in
gopher menus.
I think their correct display is left to the client, the server and the
protocol do not take in account any particular character set, right?
I'm wondering this because I noticed that Seamonkey 1.0
(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey) does not display in the menu
any line that contains accented vowels (I believe it does not display
any line that contains 8-bit characters). However, both Mosaic 2.7b6
and netscape 4.78 do. This affects the menu only, text files with
ISO-8859-1 characters are displayed correctly.
Thank you, happy post-april 1st recovery to all.
