I find programming relaxing compared to my day job. And there are some nice
people still using the software, so why not spend a few hours every now and
then. Its like fishing ... it clears the brain.

Indeed, embedded real-time systems cannot be compared to the old-school relaxed
store-and-forward :-)

That's the real motivation to spend more time on something which brings a very
positive feedback. I'm happy that you found a niche product which solves well
German Fidonet users' issues with using 8bit encoding software with German
language.

I actually think it works well for russian now as I sorted out all the charset
stuff. The main thing is that somebody has to translate the language file.
