You seem to be confused about standards. I have no idea what you think Google Groups has to do with this, but I refer to the RFCs for how a Usenet post should look, and for many years now, posts may have a Content-type: header that specifies charset=utf-8. > Though I now know that it's an interesting topic, I won't be > participating in it for the difficulty of deciphering your posts and > the added difficulty of replying with your special characters. Yes, I can see it might be awkward since your Usenet software appears to hide even the fact that the characters were different. > Use of > TeX, should you need fancy symbols, is much to be preferred for it's > raw code is easy to read while non-standard, control characters > proprietary to a company's software are meaningless. I didn't use any non-standard proprietary control characters. -- Ben.
