Good.

It doesn't look like it. Björn does not participate in de UTF nodelist project. He has his own ideas.. :(

He insists on entering the 'a' and 'o' with umlaut in Säve and Björn in 202/208 in Latin-1 in the normal ASCII nodelist. So in the ASCII list they are replaced by question marks by MakeNl. In the UTF list which in his case is just a copy of the ASCII segment submitted, they appear "as submitted" and the line is flagged as in error by my program.

To get it right Björn would have to be convinced to let go of the idea that entering LATIN-1 in the regular nodelist is not a good idea. Plus that he would have to start participating in the UTF nodelist project.

I have tried and sort of given up... :-(


Cheers, Michiel
