Peter, 
having used TOPS-10 for a short period, I know very little about TOPS-10 but
understand your problem (at least I think I do). So I'm trying to find a
solution.

The TOPS-10 system IIRC was in Ireland and was used by a European technology
sponsorship program. Contenders and participants had to use tha tsystem for
progress reports and project funding requests.

It is plain ascii, 8 bits and no problem for my own vms
systems. Besides there's no option to modify on my
blackberry. It also enforces topposting to my despair. 
Apologies. I"ll drop off the list.

As Johnny points out, it's not critisim of you or your contributions
(well, I can't read them). 

My point is that a lot of the HECNet hosts don't speak 8-bit
characters. All the 36bit machines does 5*7bit=35bit to store ASCII. 

So it would be nice if I could follow the HECnet mailinglist on my
HECnet machine, that;a all, thanks, Peter.
