Hi,

I  just received the following article (in a German newsgroup) and tried to
view it using richtext from the metamail distribution.

In article <5327@babylon.rmt.sub.org>, Ralph Babel writes:

Unfortunately  metamail  doesn't  show  the greek characters (<iso-8858-3>)
properly.   In  fact, the "iso-8859-3"-token doesn't occure anywhere in the
sources  :-(.   So:  Is this not a valid richtext token or is this a bug in
richtext?   Where  can I get a complete description for richtext?  And:  do
control  sequences  exist  to  switch  fonts  for the console device on the
Amiga?

BTW: richtext seems not to be the same that the NeXT uses in .RTF files?

Gruss, Christian
