Yes, both. ;)

That's because ANSI should definitely not be posted with a "UTF-8 4" CHRS kludge. ANSI should be posted with a CP437 CHRS kludge. Most telnet/terminal programs default to CP437 *and* support ANSI. Golded only does one of the two (supports CP437, but doesn't support ANSI).

Regards,
Nick
