seems that way... this is one of those times that i kinda (!) wish i was a C 
coder... if i was, i could fix what TimED needs to have fixed... even the y2k 
date stuff... but :(

from what i can see, there really should be a reverse translation capability... 
much software currently allows for translation from IBMPC, CPxxx to UTF-8 but 
nothing goes the other way... there's not even anything that allows for 
conversion back from UTF-8 to multiple characters like was used in numerous 
other languages in recent years... sure the tables could be built but no one 
seems to want to do that... at least, none of those in the know about such 
stuff... everyone seems to want to "cop out" to the simple life... so who am i 
to try to bring forth anything compatible to the past? :( :?
