I am using Epoch 4.2.1 in a IBM RS/6000 with AIX 3.1; it have a spanish
keyboard, with special keys for accenting letters and the like.  I installed
Epoch with the option to display 8-bit characters, but I have several
problems:

1. The accented "a" and "e" are displayed in octal.
2. The special key used to accent letters is captured directly by Epoch,
   wich insert its code (M-4).
3. The other "spanish keys" do not correspond (it seems Epoch translate
   de IBM code to ISO or something else).

Incidentally, I had troubles with compiling the files xutil.c and screen.c,
of the Epoch sources; my linker do not found the functions XSetWMNormalHints
and XGetWMNormalHints.

Does anyone can help me?  Gracias.
