Not yet ! Thank you very much for the link.

Here is a patch for fixing irc.js encoding scrambling, it consists of two
parts:
* convert incoming UTF8 to CP437 when communicating with a server, but the
client is not UTF8
* convert to UTF8 when sending messages to the client, if supported

Not sure if it's the optimal way of implementing this, I had the expected
behavior with thes two test setup:
* synchronet's irc server:
  * syncterm
  * ubuntu terminal utf8 ssh
  * irc client via znc utf8
* inspircd server
  * syncterm
  * ubuntu terminal utf8 ssh
  * irc client via znc utf8

Best,
martylake
