So far, every place I have noticed I hae a choice, I've set my Linux system to use UTF-8 as its standard font. But I still get question marks when I use mutt. No doubt I'll find the reason someday. There;s probably yet another place to tell it about character sets. My point is, that even with good intentions and a real attempt at consistent follow-through, it's still not easy enough to set up a reasonable character set. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
