No-asci chars from the on-rev CGI

[Richmond Mathewson]

  Probably time to start using Unicode:

set the useUnicode to true
put uniencode("щати") into RUS
set the unicodeText of fld "PLACEWHERE" to RUS

or encode each of those Cyrillic letters via their Unicode call numbers:

set the unicodeText of fld "PLACEWHERE" to (numToChar(XXXXX) & 
numToChar(ZZZZZ)   and so on

where 'XXXXX' and 'ZZZZZ' are the DECIMAL Unicode call numbers of your 
characters.
