Why do you want to do this? -15 and -1 are similar but not the same. -1
doesn't know the =E2=82=AC while -15 does and there are other
differences. Compare http://www.kostis.net/charsets/iso8859.1.htm with
http://www.kostis.net/charsets/iso8859.15.htm

Did you ever realize how much text fits in eighty columns? If you now consi=
der
that a signature usually consists of up to four lines, this gives you enough
space to spread a tremendous amount of information with your messages. So s=
eize
this opportunity and don't waste your signature with bullshit nobody will r=
ead.
