One of the most distinctive things about "foreign" countries is that the
signs on the roads contain weird and wonderful symbols, and where the
Roman alphabet is used, dots and dashes and slashes. I want my mud to have
different regions with different orthography systems for atmosphere
reasons.
The problem I have is with implementations - how do I know how non-ASCII
characters are being displayed on the client side? MSD*S uses a different
character set from Windows, which is different from the Mac and Unix and
NT.
Is this problem insurmountable?
