In that case, I'll send the additional patches of my grep port. > Btw, is this change really worth the hassle? Yes, since when I used your Windows port with my INFOPATH variable, it would duplicate the entries in a dir file. > But doesn't that require to use a specific font (Lucida Console, > AFAIR) to be able to show the Unicode characters, such as quotes, > frequently used by UTF-8 encoded Info files nowadays? If you use a TrueType font, characters not in the font will show as the default character (i.e. the box); if you use a raster font, Windows will translate as best it can (so curly quotes will become their ASCII equivalent), otherwise you get a question mark. Either way is better than the wrong characters (latin1 interpreted as OEM or the raw UTF-8 bytes). (BTW, anyone who likes raster 8x12 might like my TrueType conversion: http://terminalvector.adoxa.vze.com/ It does have curly quotes.) -- Jason.
