It sounds as if the X font used by gxditview(1) for troff's font TR doesn't have the Euro currency symbol. Certainly, xfd -fn '-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--*-100-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1' doesn't display it here. gxditview has the option to change the font used, but I don't know if it's possible to find one it would be happy with. Something like this perhaps, though it doesn't work: printf a€b\\n | groff -k -me -X -P-xrm -P'" TR -adobe-times-medium-r-normal--*-100-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1 "' I think most of us produce PostScript or PDF and view that rather than groff's -X. You may have more success with that method. Cheers, Ralph.
