Add support for configurable message text encoding #4
Conversation
This makes it possible to support character sets where glyphs cross byte boundaries. Defaults to UTF-8.

Oh, now I see that there's some utf8 support already -- I started off an old version. It seems unnecessary complicated and... weird. Leaving this open just in case you'd like to replace that one. Otherwise please just close this. Thank you. |

Sorry for the late response. Go right ahead, I didn't add the utf-8 support in the first place so I'm not particularly attached to it. I didn't look very hard at the code before accepting the pull request, perl makes me cranky, so I'm not surprised. The only thing I ask is it doesn't require a third party/CPAN module dependency, or degrades quietly/gracefully in the absence of such. |

Er, yeah, I see now that you already have the commit here, which looks fine, but I don't see the code being removed that you mentioned. Will the two conflict at all? (By "didn't look very hard" I mean I glanced briefly to make sure it wasn't blatantly malicious, but I don't remember what got changed.) |
