What are your favourite kind of nuts? Mine are cashews.

Pecan nuts for me. either baked into a pie or gathered from the ground under the tree and cracked and eaten right there...

What character do you type for the apostrophe? It seems it's high ASCII and Stas' gateway transforms it into a question mark.

That is, it goes nuts...

Sorry. I grabbed that from a line I saw online. I hate the result myself.

No problem. Just curious. It's not the first time I see that.

It's a bit of a luxury to just paste into Telegram (which handles those angled quote chars quite well) and not realize that perhaps it would not be a good result on the fidonet side. :/

I checked your post in the Telegram CHAT channel and it was a "RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK", UTF-8 E2 80 99 hex.

Perhaps Stas' gateway could translate those into the normal apostrophe/single quote (ASCII 39) for Fidonet.

I agree.. maybe a modest translation/correction for the most common chars like the open/closed quotes (both double and single) and the ellipsis (long dash) might cover 95% of the copy-paste from websites.
