Converted all pre-historic comments from cp866 to utf8
The change is done by find -name "*.pas" -exec recode IBM866..UTF8 {} \; and nothing is tested, but I hope it helps.
The problem is that box drawing characters were probably converted also. And ancient Virtual Pascal knows nothing about UTF-8.
So I guess it'll take some greping to convert only the comments and nothing else? Or is the box drawing you're referring to passed as comments as well? Anyway, you wanted to move to freepascal.
Looks beautiful on github, though. :-)
I guess the proper fix would be to start slowly and painfully translating it into English.

Why painfully? Just slowly :)

This will give us a mixture of 866 and utf8 inside the same file which I am not sure is a best direction to go.
Oh well, I saw a few pretty lighthearted comments. With a bit of slang here and there. :-) Might be interesting to translate.
yeah, problematic. i suggest to not accept this commit. too buggy.
Get outta here, while you still can. Angry Russians here, playing with fossilized software.
