I had assumed that logging out then back in to X11 effectly did the same thing, but apparently not! Now I see the phonetic characters like this - (back-to-front 3), "g", "z", "a", ("~" in superscript position), "p", "l" That's ok, except the "a" and ("~" in superscript position) shoud be displayed as a single character. This represents the French nasal vowel "an" as in "banque". There is a similar problem with the other nasal vowels. However, uxterm (unicode xterm) manages to diplay as single characters. Thanks again Shane
