First of all: We both mean the same, and we agree how to handle the problem in groff. I'm only arguing about technical terms. Another try. Consider a PostScript font with its encoding vector. You have a single glyph set which can map to multiple encodings. My intention is to use the terms `set' and `encoding' in a consistent way -- I want to avoid that we have to use other words if we are talking about glyphs instead of characters. Werner
