There are users who do the same. (Why use a GUI for pure text work, indeed?) To adapt a tty for random Unicode characters is a non-trivial amount of work. I don't know how to do it. I wish someone would fix these things to "just work" in the future, but who knows how long that will take? -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
