which comes out on my screen as [0093]Check for Updates[0094].
Is there a recommended Windows monospaced font which can
correctly handle these paired quotes and other less common
Unicode characters ?
Actually its broken on my screen as well, (a bad artifact from my web
post). I usually avoid unicode if I can help it in text/plain
e-mails/news postings unless there is a strong need.
It could be an issue on my end, or with our defaults in news, not sure
which. But I can assure you I don't plan on sending it like that again.
Justin, if you can find or take the time to explain why you don't like
Unicode, it would help many of us who don't have a CLUE as to why not!
I started using Unicode some while back, when I found a lot of oddities
in portraying one or another glyph could be SOLVED by switching from my
usual Western (ISO 8859-1) to Unicode (UTF-8).
Now you tell me you strongly avoid Unicode. I'd really like to know why.
Also, what encoding scheme DO you use in lieu of?
I'm curious about that, too -- I'm using a font that is perfectly happy
with ‘single’ and “double” fancy quotes, but yours display only as garble.
