Perhaps we could start with the issue of character sets. It seems that ATT is intent on 7-bit ASCII whereas from my discussions with Eric Brunner, a major contributer to XOPEN, it sounds like 8-bit ascii if far more reasonable. If 7 bit ASCII is used utilities must know how to deal with double byte character sequences. If these excaped characters are maped to 8 bit ACSII the utilities need not be changed. -- -------------------------------------------- Pete Delaney - Rocky Mnt.
