Which version are you running? There's recode.pl and charsetwars.pl in irssi-scripts in Woody, and if you grab a CVS build, there's recode support built in too. (Actually, I don't know that charsetwars.pl was in Woody. I only discovered it recently. ^_^) I've been using irssi from a UTF-8 terminal on SJIS channels on my Woody web server since September 2003, at least. The enormous time between irssi releases means I've had to run a CVS version on my unstable local box for about twelve months, to fix interesting DCC and frontend bugs. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 8th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Anu.edu.au "No survivors?
