Hej August!

Not surprising given that CP437 doesn't support CP866 encoding.  The only encoding that properly supports differing languages is utf8.  CP437 falls short of supporting anything other than the so-call higher ascii, which of course is bogus.  All ascii are 7-bit characters and is well supported by most encodings in the range of 0x00 to 0x7f.  Anything above that isn't ascii, higher or otherwise.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
