I just checked and it does do upper ascii characters (the Danish 
characters you typed above).

Joe did not.  There is an -asis option but when I typed various upper 
ascii characters as Alt-number, they all came out the same.  Joe can be 
used with the same commands as Pico, instead of Wordstar, if you don't 
like Ctrl-K commands.

The e3pi that comes with BL3 does upper ascii but I don't see a way to do 
wordwrap at all.  It can also emulate pico (e3pi) or wordstar, etc.
