Hi Fabian,

Have a look at this, and don;t omit the footnote

I do it that way becaue I can't get the Unicode stuff to work on Xemacs,
though with Gnu Emacs it works nicely.

Good luck

Weird, I get this summary:

I love how it looks, but the ">" thread indicator is shifting the
third line to the right by 1 space (the "63:" and everything after it
should be 1 space to the left).
