Re: The future of (C-X-)SAMPA (was: New listserv, better unicode?)

Uhm, PuTTY is not the only SSH client out there, and even if it won't do 
UTF-8

Not that the demise of ASCII is imminent, or anything, but you wouldn't need 
to switch to a GUI to get Unicode. I read email for years using mutt in a 
terminal window (xterm or Kermit-95 by preference, PuTTY when those weren't 
available) and was perfectly capable of reading Unicode text. PuTTY handles 
UTF-8 output just fine.
