Hej August!

That shouldn't mess with the actual codes stored within the message.  If it 
does then you have a crippled terminal.  Even an old abandonware DOS editor 
will honour the codes despite the fact it cannot reproduce the proper charaters 
for display purposes.  My best guess is that OpenXP has issues that have 
nothing to do with your choice in fonts.  On the plus side it is in good 
company, msged and golded come to mind.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
