Subject: International character sets

MIME supports several ISO international character sets in addition to US-ASCII. 
Does the current unix pine client (and any others) support creation and display 
of text from a vt100 (emulated) keyboard in any of these alternate charsets? If 
so, where can I find the documentation?

Pine supports international character sets to the extent that it assumes 
that if you say you are using ISO-8859-7, that that is what you are 
indeen entering.  i.e. It does not attempt to do any translation.  Most 
vt100 emulators allow you to specify an alternate keyboard mapping, so 
you can set it up to use whatever character set you want.
