I can't seem to be able to locate any char(173) parts in the manpages. I tried to reproduce it with: $ fetch -o - 'http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg_add&sektion=1' | hd | grep -i ' ad ' $ fetch -o - 'http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg_delete&sektion=1' | hd | grep -i ' ad ' 0xAD being the hex equivalent of 173 in base-10. Nothing shows up. Are you sure this isn't just a combination of a bug in the browsers that you mentioned trying to do `smart' things and a specific font selection that applies only to your local setup? - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-www" in the body of the message
