Try viewing a Hebrew UTF-8 page from a ISO-8859-8 terminal (and tell lynx
that the terminal is indeed such!). Hebrew chars should show up just fine.

Try viewing a page with accented latin charaters on a Hebrew terminal, and
you'll get the original letters, without the accesnts (latin1->ascii
"conversion").

Lynx certainly has pretty good multi-lingual support.
