In both cases, those characters still show up as empty boxes. With the special character in this line (setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-vertical "=E2=94=82"), "Options - Mule - Set Font/Fontset - fontset - default" gives me this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- character: =E2=94=82 (01110042, 299042, 0x49022) charset: mule-unicode-2500-33ff (Unicode characters of the range U+2500= ..U+33FF.) code point: 32 34 syntax: w which means: word category: buffer code: 0x9C 0xF2 0xA0 0xA2 file code: 0x9C 0xF2 0xA0 0xA2 (encoded by coding system emacs-mule) font: -LFP-Uniread-Medium-R-Normal--9-90-75-75--60-ISO10646-1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Options - Mule - Set Font/Fontset - fontset - standard 16-dot medium" gives me this: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- character: =E2=94=82 (01110042, 299042, 0x49022) charset: mule-unicode-2500-33ff (Unicode characters of the range U+2500= ..U+33FF.) code point: 32 34 syntax: w which means: word category: buffer code: 0x9C 0xF2 0xA0 0xA2 file code: 0x9C 0xF2 0xA0 0xA2 (encoded by coding system emacs-mule) font: -gnu-fixed-medium-r-normal-f-16-160-75-75-c-80-iso10646-1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Turns out I once fooled around with some branch of Czyborra's unicode font. I'll try the real thing. Cheers - bw --=20 Bill White . billw@wolfram.com . http://members.wri.com/billw "No ma'am, we're musicians."
