lynx displays characters on the screen using curses (also slang actually, but its notion of locale is not as well developed). lynx knows about a variety of 8-bit display character sets, and one special case for UTF-8. That case, if configured with a curses implementation that knows how to handle multi-byte characters, could in principle generate UTF-16. But that depends on the curses implementation itself. -- Thomas E. Dickey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://invisible-island.net ftp://invisible-island.net
