Hej Nick!

> set assumed_charset = "ibm437"

Which according to IANA is the real name for that code page.  I think sticking to real names is preferable given that fts-5003.001 has been seriously corrupted.  Same could be said for fts-4008.002 (timezone) but that's another sad story amongst the many obvious flaws that continue to plague fidonet.

Yep.  cp437 is a legitimate alias.

> This one will probably go out as ascii

That is what I see.  Near as I can tell my reply to you is also ascii but given that 7-bit ascii is part of utf-8 this isn't really an issue as this reply is evidence of.

Excellent!  links should also work straight out of the box.  I have both here.

Het leven is goed,
