On Saturday April 19 2014 00:41, you wrote to me:

So you actually reïnvented the wheel and wrote a complete packet viewer? I am impressed...

I see.

It is a text editor, so you have to apply it to some "text".

Impressive, but why reïnvent the wheel? What

So why did you call it cheating when I revealed that for UTF-8 I use notepad as an external editor for Golded?

So did I, but there is no need for everyone to do that is there? We can share our exprience and let others benfit from it can't we?
