Hello Mr. g00r00,

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I thought I would ask anyway.  It appears that if someone uses an iOS device to post a message on Synchronet's web interface, the punctuation appears a little funky on Mystic boards (or even on Synchronet boards if using a terminal that doesn't support UTF-8).

Synchronet with SyncTerm:

Just curious if UTF-8 support is on the roadmap for Mystic & Netrunner?

.... If everything seems easy, you have obviously overlooked something.
