Info on the email course can be found at www.esperanto-usa.org I have found several places online that you can download fonts that contain the needed characters. There is a collection of Latin-3 fonts (iso8859-3) that can be used in XFree86. In my previous email, I pointed out where a Unicode chart can be had with the correct characters in it. The standard method for ASCII text is to use an "x" after the character with a "^" above it. It's not perfect, but it is fairly universal and understandable. This is the method used in the lessons.
I found a wealth of resources online and now know a lot more about Unicode than I ever did. The unicode Esperanto characters have been standard for some time. They were included in Windows95, for example. http://www.unicode.org/charts TimH On Sun, 8 Dec 2002 10:37:04 -0800 "Dexter Graphic" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I was excited about Esperanto for a while but then I gave it up.
