What about the linux console? I suspect that the answer will be that the linux console is right now not able to display at the same time eastern european, asiatic, arabic and hebrev characters (perhaps unless one uses someting experimental like uterm whose source seems to not be available at its homepage http://members.aceweb.com/hanpaul/ ). So the next question is: What is the combination of "decent" X-terminal and font (and screen resolution for X, and refresh rate) such that, when run in a window manager which is able to use full screen windoes (like ratpoison, icewm, evilwm and many others) looks the *same* as a linux ("standard" or framebuffer) console? I was never be able to find nor a decent terminal nor a decent (i.e. console like) font. (a terminal which uses gnome or kde libraries is not decent for my pourposes. gtk only or qt only might or might not be. xlib only surely is) -- Chi usa software non libero avvelena anche te.
