Just realized on reading this how weird it sounds. What I was getting at here was that the (single-byte) UTF-16 code displays the correct character in a UTF-8 locale, even though the UTF-8 code for the character is supposedly a 2-byte sequence. Anyway, enough about that. I've managed to get the results I was hoping for now, so I'm satisfied. :-) Thanks again for all the responses. -- Conrad J.
