As I understand it it works well with 8859-1,
which covers many western languages,
but that would not include the high unicodes,
so yes that would leave you out in the cold regarding
alpha beta gamma and my other math symbols.
And I do appreciate this feedback; that's why I posted.

On the other side, edbrowse renders these according to my taste,
and in english, hard coded,
so some of my French edbrowse users may not be thrilled with the word alpha.
Who knows how that sounds on a french synthesizer.
So there's no clear right answere here;
maybe we'll just leave edbrowse be for a while until we have
a clear plan, or maybe a switch to turn these on or off.
