In principle, not a bad thing, however FLTK doesn't support Unicode very well at present - except with the xunicode toolkit which is something of a deadie (look at its homepages: http://www.ab.wakwak.com/~tino/jatk/ and http://xunicode.sourceforge.net/). While this is not much of a problem now, it could very well become one in the future as LyX develops towards Unicode. Philipp
