+ CHARCONV <client-charset>
+ .
+ Set client character set encoding to <client-charset>.
+ .
+ After receiving such a command, the server translates all message
+ data received from the client using the set <client-charset> to the
+ server encoding (UTF-8), and all message data which is to be sent to
+ the client from the server encoding (UTF-8) to <client-charset>.
+ .
+ This enables older clients and clients using "strange" character sets
+ to transparently participate in channels and direct messages to
+ clients using UTF-8, which should be the default today.
