Maybe we've been here before and I just forgot,
or maybe it's cause I upgraded from Fedora3 to Ubuntu8 recently..

Should FLTK 1.3.x be able to display Japanese UTF8 "automatically"
under linux with XFT enabled?

Under Ubuntu8 I get "boxes" in place of japanese characters
unless I specify a Japanese font, like:

        Fl::set_font(FL_HELVETICA, "Kochi Gothic");

Should FLTK somehow be automatically displaying Japanese UTF8
text, without hard coded Fl::set_font()'s?

I think with WIN32 and OSX, there are no special Fl::set_font()
commands needed to get Japanese to display, but linux seems to
be an exception.

FWIW, I did recently install "xfonts-intl-japanese"..
