I have not tested, but should support.
Can you test with UTF-8? Or perhaps with CP437? IMO any of those
would be better than CP866 for non Russian speaking echos.
For Russian-speaking echo, the CP866 is a standard, fixed by the rules
in many of them. We do not have UTF-8 Russian language echo.
Yes, I had noticed that (or I read it somewhere).
In R34/ESP echos there has never been a standard. Ages ago people used CP437 (most), LATIN-1 (many) and CP850. Now we also have UTF-8. Kind of babel tower. :-) But even with the mangled characters, Spanish is mostly readable.
In the 90s many of us usually wrote *incorrect* Spanish using ASCII only (no accented vocals and other symbols) to avoid these issues.
I guess you couldn't do that with the cyrillic alphabet... ;-)
If not this echo, I suppose that ESP.ARGENTINA would be a good
place to test. Accented vocals and other Spanish chars are
transformed into question marks there...
Yes.
Another suitable echo might be ESP.PRUEBAS, the Spanish test area.
