    Glad to see you, All!

    This is a bit of a problem with long messages. When they arrive on TG they are broken into a bunch of smaller ones.
    Also, some wierd characters

    Hi John...

    This is a bit of a problem with long messages. When they arrive on TG they are broken into a bunch of smaller ones.
    Also, some wierd characters

    It's not bad. At least they are all in sequence. However, perhaps it may be best to avoid really long stuff like that. I wouldn't tend to read all of it even at my desktop with OpenXP. It's too easy to "TL:DR". HOWEVER.. it wher accompanied by an .epub version, I might be persuaded to copy it over to my eReader for a nightcap reading.

    BTW.. some of the chars didn't translate well. Eg:

    " "???You???ll do it, then??????Yes,?????It was a pleasant night out, especially with a bottle of wine and stolen roasted chicken to gnaw on." "

    Perhaps you can run it through an ascii-only filter/converter. OR.. maybe Stas can enable UTF-8?

    Ciao!
