Re: What is the editor doing at startup?

Well, it's a virtual.  You might find these two entertaining... one is Linode's weblish, the other is glish, and they report differing Unicode versions.

Thank you for your feedback.

The output for your linux box seems to reflect only the behavior of the macOS terminal application you use to connect remotely.

14.0.0 is almost up to date: the latest version is 15.0.0, released just a few days ago.

I am going to try and reduce this spurious output.

Best regards

Hi Marc,

The terminal output you noticed is produced at startup time by function tty_dpy_init() in an attempt to determine the version of Unicode supported by the terminal. I have modified qemacs version of wcwidth() to handle most versions of Unicode transparently, so this is probably not needed.

Can you tell me what version is displayed in the describe-screen popup window?  It shows Unicode 8.0.0 on my OS/X system, which is quite old.

Cheers

Chqrlie.
