- Function:
selchs

This will show a select box where you can manually select which codepage or
character set you think the messages that you are reading are in. You only
need this in two cases: Either when some idiot is inserting a wrong CHRS
kludge into this mail, or when a mail does not have a CHRS kludge and it is
not written in the character set that you have specified as argument
to the
AssumeCharset
keyword (see section 6.2.6 AssumeCharset.
An example would be if you have configured your computer with
`AssumeCharset 850' because you usually write in a Western European
language, but ocasionally read Russian echomail. Then, if the Russian mail
does not have a charset kludge, you would need to press Alt-T and
manually select `CP866 2' in order to view the proper transcription of
the cyrillic text.
The selection that you make lasts until you make a differnt one, or until you
