I have a similar question -- how to enter arbitrary unicode characters. My system is configured (to the extent I've been able to do it) UTF-8 only, but I still have only the usual characters on my keyboard, and don't know, for example, how to enter hiragana. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
