I tried KOI8-R too! But the manpage needs to be installed to be viewable, calling man ./hex-a-hop.ru.6 does not work (but does for other languages)! > I recommended to see "adduser" package sources how to setup various > encondings for languages with po4a.conf.

No, these are command and file names which consist in Debian only of 7bit ASCII data. Otherwise you would fail to copy and paste it ... Think of \(hy as just another dash such as en- or em-dash which is used in typography. I also wonder that hyphens look in the Russian manpage identical to minus signs. In the German translation they are shorter!? Maybe another font is used which doesn't provide \(hy?????? Feel free to analyse this ... Jens
