And, moderator, please tweak the list software to allow ISO-8859-1 accented letters through. It's okay to nuke Microsoft droppings and UTF-8 mojibake. Thanks. You get extra credit for turning Microsoft droppings back into what they were supposed to have been, e.g. the above-mentioned character back into three dots.
No!
It's ASCII or UTF-8. The codepage nonsense is so dead it ceased smelling ten years ago.
Strongly agree.
Seconded. If you want accented characters and math formulae, then use LaTeX. That's better than unreadable nonsense or those silly multi-line ASCII-art formulae. Just out of interest, what's the policy on UTF-8 (extended ASCII)? In particular, can everyone read the following sentence? `Professor Béla Bollobás has an Erdös number of (¾ + ½²).' There should be two acute accents, one umlaut (since Hungarian double acute accents are absent from UTF-8), two rationals and a square. Everything else is ASCII. Sincerely, Adam P. Goucher
