Ahhh, something useful at last! How could I ever spend my lonely hours in the Puppy forum without Chibi-chan?
But a nagging question remains: What is it that Maki-chan was trying to tell me? Will I ever know? She speaks EUC-JP, I don't. Geany claims to understand, but lies, old Firefox tries hard and understands a few words. But I must know EVERYTHING! Oh Maki-chan, learn UTF...please!!!

I would like to know as well...
But might be boring to have same response night after night...
You can install fortune - download pet and run below script before starting macopix.
The fortune pet contains...Startrek citations ..but they give the mascot a different "touch".
Be aware that all your *.mcpx will be changed and only way to restore is to install the original mascot again.

I have Japanese fonts installed, but the UTF-8 conversion doesn't seem to work ..the mystery continuesMaCoPiX's FAQ wrote:[Case of Gtk+2.x]
If you are using Gtk+2.x, MaCoPiX (after ver1.2.1) automatically converts the character code in mascot files (EUC-JP) to UTF-8 in order to understand characters under Gtk+2.x . So, if you have any Japanese Kanji fonts in your X environment, you can see the original balloon message in Japanese.
