i've been testing how far i can use Unicode for Ancient Greek & Esperanto.
one thing i've found is that -- following instructions --
only some of the characters appear with Lynx. my test file is attached.
on Gentoo Linux + Lynx 2.8.5dev16, i created a virtual terminal via
LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 xterm -u8 -fn
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1" &
this being the font which is known to work with Vim & OpenOffice.
then i enter 'lynx testfile.html' & choose UTF8 under Options (Display),
i can see the Esperanto letters h^ j^ u^ & Greek alpha - omikron ,
but not Esp c^ g^ s^ or Gk pi - omega (digamma is a problem everywhere).
all of them are displayed correctly using Konqueror & Galeon.
further, in the test file obtained via Lynx help (Options menu),
i can see only 00A9 03BB 042E 043B , but none of the others.
is this a font problem ? does anyone have a solution to offer ?
