I think that's e-acute. I have it partlyworking in regular xterm. I can type the string % cafe with the final e being hex-e9 and I get "zsh: command not found: \M-i" which makes sense. It would be nice to see the cafe echoed with the aigu over the e, but whatever. On both the Gnome Terminal and the KDE Konsole, zip, nada, nothing. I've tried "Setttings" for the Konsole terms. No joy. I don't know where to mouse and click for Gnome. Oh,and most of the time in vi no Latin1 chars. thanks for any clues! gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix
