Hi,

Yes, they will be visible, but I'm talking about SMSs without ASCII
chars except spaces/numbers/dots/commas/etc. In that case all words
(in national language for example) will not be visible at VTY and user
will see many '?' symbols if change non-ascii chars to '?' and
spaces/comms/etc, and I think such representation of original text
will be not very good (if I correctly understand your first comment).

Thanks,
Pavel
