I believe your system doesn't have Terminus installed, and dwm is using the fallback font. What happens if you set your font to "fixed"? Currently dwm lacks unicode support when using the fallback font. If this works it is a known bug and will be fixed once dwm switches over to draw.c. In the meantime, don't use fallback. If that still doesn't work, what about the font "*"? (This will be very ugly to behold.) If this works it probably means your "fixed" font doesn't have unicode support, which means you need to find a font which includes guillemets. If *that* doesn't work it means your locale settings are wrong, which opens a can of worms. Thanks, cls
