Package: joe Version: 3.5-1.1 Severity: normal %a and %A fields in the status bar (-lmsf, -rmsg) show only the first byte of any multibyte character (UTF-8, legacy Chinese/etc charsets, ...). This is useless, as there is no way to see the rest -- and you're not really supposed to be able to edit part of a character anyway.
Thus, please show the decoded value instead, eg "2592" for "▒" instead of "E2" (the first byte of "E2 96 92"). As it's possible for the number to go up to 0x10FFFF, I would display BMP ones as U+1234, eating into "U+" in the rare upper planes. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-vserver-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages joe depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20070908-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand joe recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
