We are in the same boat. :) > then, but it's entirely possible that (a) the font > actually doesn't have those characters, or (b) kmail uses a 16-bit > renderer. Both of which are unk to me. I like the rest of how kmail works, and have written automatic scripts to reduce the actual work involved, so I am not likely to change agents without a better reason than a couple boxes where someone, think its cute, decides to test the rest of the systems. I believe there is a french saying about such that boils down to a shrug. ;-) But its also something I've not seen in something approaching 70 years, last in some required school reading in the middle 40's IIRC, so its still a shrug. I thought maybe I'd gain a clue by starting a discussion, but either it didn't or it flew by without even the loss of a feather. Solution buried deeper in the system than my bash speaking shovel can reach. ;) Take care all, and have a better 2018.
