>Release: FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE i386
>Organization:
Individual
>Environment:
3.2-RELEASE and 2.2.8-RELEASE
>Description:
fmt(1) removes "non-printable" characters, including ISO Latin1 128-255
characters.
>How-To-Repeat:
Snarf an 8-bit-text file from somewhere and run it through fmt.
>Fix:
The following inelegant patch simply comments out the offending test. A more
elegant solution would continue to discard characters below 040 octal while
passing characters 177 and up.
