Just a very crude one, experimental, that works only with UTF-8. I could make a lengthy lookup table, with records like Δ : \U00000394 And then somewhere in preprocessor (?) or cpplib (where?) there would be just one extra line, that would filter the input characters assuming utf-8. A very non-portable, and a very crude solution. But at least something to start with. If you see a single point in the source code, where I could add such a filter, please tell me where it is. Perhaps I'll try to make a patch for that. best regards -- Janek Kozicki http://janek.kozicki.pl/
