• Garbled characters into MUTIL

    From Nighthawk@21:1/146.1 to All on Tuesday, December 05, 2017 15:07:01
    Hello everyone,

    Don't know if anyone else experienced it (not that many MacOS users here),
    but after upgrading this system to final A36 I realized that MUTIL's ANSIs became garbled upon running it.

    I have the terminal properly set up (I can see regularly other ANSI files),
    and into previous versions the MUTIL was showing its ANSI part fine...

    Thanks for the report. It appears its running in CP437 mode even when UTF8 is set for local console. The good news is MUTIL should still work just fine.

    I'll have it fixed up in the next build.

    Thanks to you for fixing it! I have installed the latest prealpha and it looks fine now.
