Hallo Benny!

 BP> msged is opensource, please add unicode solution to it :)

Yes it is but it is tied in to other sources/dependencies that would also 
require fixing.  Also I don't believe that 8-bit has been properly addressed 
nevermind multibyte.  Same with golded.  However vim already can handle it all 
which makes it perfect as a base editor just like offline packages do, such as 
QWK and Bluewave except without needing the non-FTN formats.  At the moment I 
am using a format not too far removed from fidonet's packed MSG format except 
without the binary data which just gets in the way and has absolutely no 
practical purpose.  Bottomline is that it already works and doesn't require any 
hacking.

 BP> i got a new cat.... :|)

I still have the same one;

-={ '<Esc>:read !cat --version' starts }=-
cat (GNU coreutils) 8.29

Works like a charm.

Het leven is goed,
