I use amaya to draft web pages, with the upcoming utf8 support in xhtmlin
amaya, I wanted to be sure to be able to edit utf8 document in a text
editor, like vim or emacs.

That's almost I want to do, just replace mutt by vim :-). And all this
under x11.

Ok, so apparently, there's not much to do except getting the utf8 enabled
programs.
Thanks for the insight.
