Thanks Rob that works well for moving from one UFT-8/ANSI disabled terminal
setting to BBC Mode7 (but not if moving from ANSI or something with UTF-8
enabled). Would changing the contents of user.setting allow me to change the
terminal type settings to
auto off, UTF-8 off, ANSI off, CBM/PETSCII off, EXASCII on

Would something similar to this work:

if(confirm("Are you using a BBC Micro Mode 7 terminal"))
	user.lang = "bbcmicro";
	user.settings &= ~USER_AUTOTERM | USER_ANSI | USER_RIP | USER_WIP |
USER_HTML | USER_PETSCII | USER_UTF8;
	user.settings &= ~USER_EXASCII;
else
	user.lang = "";
