Well, I need filterm to have an unicode enabled virtual text console. Without filterm I am still able to read AND type special national characters (like German or Scandinavian äöü). Without filterm there is NO problem with iso-8859-1 or iso-8859-15 for me! BUT (without using filterm and its filter "dynafont"): If someone posts in utf-8 I am not able to see all the special characters AND I am not able to reply to such a post without having my reply look totally fucked up (as to the special characters that I may have in the quotation of the utf-8 poster). All this happens with Emacs in a virtual text console. It is NO issue when using Emacs in the X Window environment (either by using the graphical Emacs OR by running "emacs -nw" in an utf enabled terminal program, like uxterm or gnome-terminal)! Could you (or other people) please take part in a quick test: Here is a message-id of an utf poster (it's from a thread about ugly fonts in gnu.emacs.gnus): <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Here is another example (this time posted by ME): <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Regarding the first message-id (see above): Do you really see all the special characters, especially: are the apostrophes correct? What about the text in the signature of that poster? And please, do the test from a virtual text console, not from within X. Thanks. Of course, this all looks like a minor problem, since most posts are NOT in utf-8, but anyway: I would be dissatisfied if a console version of Emacs/Gnus was unable to display utf-8 all right (in contrast to windows newsreaders like Forte Agent that always display these encodings perfectly).
