Subject: [9fans] plan9port troff no Greek letters
Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2010 13:46:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTingRRKCN3O5qK4SFsv0i=vX45xmYo+4irww2tqw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

my plan9 machine has broken down and I need to continue working.
I use troff with math. When I tried to typeset my text under plan9port
(instead of the native plan9) with

cat $stem.ms |9 pic|9 eqn|9 troff -ms|9 tr2post | 9 psfonts >$stem.ps

I can't see any Greek letters.
Is there sth. simple to do?

Thanks a lot!
Ruda

PS.: Does anyone of you know if it is possible to teach linux to read
unicode letters as plan9 does? I mean e.g. alt+*+a means alpha, etc.
