Summary: UTF8 support

Initial Comment:
It would be nice if bzflag clients could send/receive
messages in UTF8 format, or at least in iso-8859-15.

Currently the SVN trunk (future 3.0) client and server should both handle
UTF8 (including multibyte) correctly.  If you have issues, please file a
bug with steps to reproduce whatever problem you have.

Note that 2.0.x (current release at this time) does not and will not have
this capability.

Yes, I think UTF-8 support is a must too. Also, bzflag
should convert to/from whatever charset is used in the
current locale, similar to what X-chat does.

By the way, does bzflag support international charset input
using XIM at all? It seems to me this could be hard to
render on top of the 3D surface.
