Remote character set

Hello!

We have old system where Scandinavian characters are stored as parenthesis. Otherwise character set is ISO-8859-1.

So when server sends { we would like it to show as ? on the KiTTY screen. And on the contrary, when user press ?, server should see it as {. It would be these 6 characters we would need to map:
{=?
}=?
|=?
[=?
]=?
\=?

Also would need to get directly to the screen when user presses key, which ascii code is 186.

Is there any other way to get this working but download KiTTY's source and try to hack and rebuild it?

It would be nice to have this kind of settings in KiTTY, like You run all characters coming from server through this:
[Map incoming remote character]
128=228
125=229
124=246
91=196
93=197
92=214

And if user press ?, it should be ? on the screen, but server should get it as {.
[Map outgoing remote characters]
228=128
229=125
246=124
196=91
197=93
214=92

And run all characters coming from keyboard through this:
[Map user keypress]
186=94

Pretty generous donation could be achieved with solution for these :)

Browser doesn't show caret here, so I write line differently:

Also would need to get character caret, which ascii code is 94, directly to the screen when user presses key, which ascii code is 186.
