[for non-multipart >> messages there are no buttons, and `i' is not working] MWD> `C-u W M c' doesn't work? Hmm [i did not know about `W M c']. Here is what i get: * if the article is already decoded (maybe, wrongly), then pressing `C-u W M c' and specifying another charset causes buggy double-decoding (resulting in \214<8-bit-char> mess) * to deal with the above [is it a bug?] i can do `C-u g' an article before pressing `C-u W M c'. * and most important, this does not work for the article which started this thread: pressing `C-u W M c' and specifying any charset has no effect at all --- an article remains unencoded (i.e. looks like `\301\305\302...'). this is perhaps a bug.
