I'm still not able to get this to work. Attached is my script (or find it at http://pubpages.unh.edu/~jmb97/SDL/NFont/render-nfont.scm). It produces a bitmap of the characters in a font. I thought the whole first byte was identical between ASCII and UTF-8... Anyhow, maybe someone can get it to work or see what I'm trying to do. Basically, I'm just trying to put the special and accented characters (161, '¡' to 255, ÿ) into a string, but the Gimp isn't outputting anything where they should be. The script appears as NFont->Create NFont. Then you must check the extended ASCII box. I tried using Emacs, but changing the encoding didn't affect anything.
