Forums Feature Suggestions charset and encoding

(I write english not very good)
A list of differents encoding like utf-8 will be useful to speak with asian or arabian people. And in many irc channel, lot of people hates people who use utf-8 encoding because many of characters like "é è ç à" were not readable in mirc.
I enjoy Khaled to develop this new feature in the next release of mirc.

Thanks for taking the time to suggest a feature for mIRC. This has however, been suggested many times! Khaled has said he will include it in future versions of mIRC at some point.

Regards,

On another note, I find it odd that Microsoft had to make an entire new text API just to implement Unicode support... Couldn't they just as easily have extended their multibyte locales to support 4 or 6 bytes and generated UTF-8 locales using the existing API? At any rate they seem unwilling to release any specs for their .NLS files, so I guess we'll never know.

yeah, yeah, a really long made promise:

I wonder if it will ever be included? I tried a script using primitiv utf-8 conversion to ANSI codepages, but not only it was not compatible to the installed theme, it even managed to add ansi control codes before non-utf-8 special characters .
More and more people are using full utf-8 compatible clients, just mIRC seems to be far behind.

--> sockwrite -n $sockname Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate

support for gzip encoding would be nice too.
