Lee knows what he is talking about. I can and will change the character encoding
to whatever is desired, but I know very little about this and won't make a change
until approved by consensus here. I don't want to make anything worse. :-)

browsers can be configured to use UTF-8, that would probably be best
since that would enable simulataneous display of all languages, but I
think most older browsers use ISO-2022 or something.
We intend to support everything. Unfortunately,
we may not always
know how.
