where did you type the putserv command? in suse telnet itself (on the console) or in a windows telnet/dcc session?

if you typed on the console (using international keybord) then it is most likely that your linux codepages has changed

also goes for outpuut btw (where do you see the strange chars? in your irc client, or in the logfile?)

proc register:bot { n uh h text } {
putserv "PRIVMSG $n : leñe $text"
}

<Renik> /msg bot ñ í ó

On the partyline we can see:
