If a message posted on a Mystic BBS contains non-ASCII characters (e.g. 
accented vocals,  ‚¡¢£, or the n with tilde, ¤), message readers may not know 
how to decode it, as there is no CHRS kludge.

Some editors that support multiple charsets may assume CP437 if no CHRS is 
present (I have it configured that way in my GoldED). But it would be nice if 
Mystic supported this kludge, like most modern FTN software. See FTS-5003 for 
info about this standard.
