Hi,

We recently designed a font for a south-asian language "Telugu" that
uses most of the 255 characters. When we open a file in the screen
with "Telugu" font, we cannot see most of the characters; instead it
displays in the "visible control" forms like \202 [in Telugu font,
ofcourse] etc, where as we want the character in 202.

My Q is is there a way to prohibit epoch-screen to print the
characters in visible control forms? Any pointers and suggestions are
welcome.

Thanks a lot!!
Rama
