Sounds like a fine idea to me - if you have "worked examples" of how you
see it coded, I might be able to work it into "my" 1.1.8-utf8 hack

Yes - I agree. Also, I'd just like to say "OLPC" at this point (not that
it has fltk by default) since it has a 200dpi display. Blimey that is
small.

Ps: Greg - did you ever get a chance to look at "my" utf8 hack?
Comments? Also... What about building in a recent version of your table
