I was just talking about getting Unicode through the listserv in good old-fashioned SMTP mail --- but yes, the web interface mangles it even more. It puts in ?'s for what it thinks is control characters, but are really parts of Unicode characters--- and besides, most browsers would need a header on the web page to make them switch to Unicode. So until the archive interface is fixed, we'd better keep to Latin-1. Lars Mathiesen (U of Copenhagen CS Dep) <thorinn@...> (Humour NOT marked)
