A bit of digging. For text tty's (tty1, tty2, etc) I use solar24x32 |
| 11 |
as the font. On a text tty both mc and mutt work fine (line-drawing) |
| 12 |
natively without any hacks. They also work fine on urxvt without any |
| 13 |
hacks. Note that the ebuild that provides urxvt is called, wait for it, |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
rxvt-unicode |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
It looks like urxvt is designed from square 1 to handle unicode, and |
| 18 |
xterm is not. |

I've seen things, you people wouldn't believe; Gopher, Netscape with |
| 22 |
frames, the first Browser Wars. Searching for pages with AltaVista, |
| 23 |
pop-up windows self-replicating, trying to uninstall RealPlayer. All |
| 24 |
those moments, will be lost in time like tears in rain... time to die. |
