Thanks! Now that I sat back and thought about it a bit longer, it probably doesn't even matter to me that most of the aspects of UTF-8 processing work completely. Both xterm and emacs already work well enough for my purposes. All I needed to do is read gcc error strings produced by fedora FC4. For some silly reason that gcc used some high-page unicode forward-tick and back-tick for quoting things in error/warning messages. Getting perl to shut up about the LANG variable was probably all I really needed from perl. (And that was a simple "export PERL_BADLANG=0"). -wolfgang
