But it is displayed as EUR sign because of your bogus font setting. As currency is not included in iso-8859-15, Gnus chooses iso-8859-1. You can find out which char it is, by using `C-u C-x =' on the char. Bye, Reiner. -- ,,, (o o) ---ooO-(_)-Ooo--- | PGP key available | http://rsteib.home.pages.de/
