Re: less in an xterm

Re: how to type accents with pine in a msg?

Even simpler is to change the pine editor to vim, and enable vim's digraph support. Then you can enter all the accented charracters in ISO-8859-1 by typing Ctrl-V followed by two other characaters. E.g. e-acute is ^Ve'. I guess you mean Ctrl-K instead of Ctrl-V... -- Michel Beland
