Are there any good, free, monospaced fonts with large Unicode ranges?
Editing a wiki (for example) with Lynx is sometimes dangerous due to the
character conversion. If I had a supporting font, maybe I could avoid
having the input mangled. Any suggestions? Can I use TT fonts in a
terminal app? What about Inconsolata, Liberation Mono, DejaVu Sans Mono,
others???
Hmm, now I wonder if I'd have to explicitly set the terminal type to
something supporting UTF, too. Maybe the current fonts are fine but my
terminal is wrong.
no - there's nothing in the terminal description that relates to encoding.
