@muito_pelo@contra.rio.br @goosey@mastodon.sdf.org “Gopherus decodes all displayable content as UTF-8 and outputs wide characters
to the terminal whenever possible (relying on ncursesw). On the DOS platform
it limits output to characters in the ASCII range 32..255 and assumes a system
codepage set to Latin I.”
It seems DOS version does assume Latin 1 encoding actually. But of course it doesn’t mean anything on DOS older than 5.0 which simply didn’t have support for any local codepages.
I have distant memories of settting up country.sys for DOS..
