What we'd need too is UTF-8 (unicode) support (to the new window system,
not the old one). You said you'd think about it, so maybe it'd be worth
to check what would be required for this. We could speak about it during
the IRC meeting.

Uh, somehow. But I wouldn't rely on it, if I were you.

Having real Unicode support imply having a GUI that can display it. As
we'll use TT fonts, it will be greatly simplified. But I suppose this
will need a bit of documentation to be well implemented - and 0.3 will
probably not support it before the new GUI is backported to it.

Jol, if you want we discuss more accurately about this, feel free to
contact me privately (and in French ;))

Alex.
