• testing pound symbol

    From August Abolins@2:221/1.58 to All on Thu Jul 8 07:52:00 2021
    Hello All!

    Just testing if the pound symbol is supported from my OpenXP:

    symbol = œ

    ..and to see if it survives the Fido-to-Telegram journey.

    I see the tilde sign (and a backslash, but only when I edit the message, not in the viewer)...

    My utf-8 is broken. I'm aware of it, but never took the time to try and fix it, and I don't know if it's even possible in linux Golded...
