[mkgmap-dev] Update of typ with correct codepage and special chars

Mon Jan 28 08:48:52 GMT 2019

Hi Gerd & Steve

I suggested utf_8 for the typ file to ensure languages such as Greek, 
Russian,Arabic,Chinese etc can all be included.

As an experiment I have been using CP 65001 in my TYP file with labels 
for my icons in Chinese,Arabic and Russian and the latin option without 
any problems on any of my gps's
