Ehm, thats not what i asked for.

Yes, i know.

Doh.

Yes it does, because if i want to run UTF-8 so that i can see all
charsets i'll do that. But on irc it's a constant problem for other
Swedish people since they can't see what i'm typing without a /charset
latin1.

So, this answer is totally unrelated. What i asked for was a way to set
the default charset not to have it use the "system default" which is
what it currently does on all /server commands anyways.
