=> HI , FORTH PROGRAMMARS :
=>      I AM A STUDENT IN TAIWAN , I FOUND F-PC IS REALLY A POWERFUL UTIL.
=>  BUT THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG IN THE XEXPECT.SEQ , 'CAUSE IT MAKES F-PC
=>  CAN'T SHOW CHINESE WORDS ! BY THE WAY , THE SED EDITING ENVIRONMENT
=>  WILL CHECK THE ASCII CODE > 127 , THUS NO CHINESE SENTENCE CAN BE
=>  SHOWN ! I HOPE DR.C.H.TING WILL HELP SOLVING THIS PROBLEM . THANX.
=>                                               VIRTUALLY

I too have this problem. Acents (I think it's spelled this way) are an
important part of portuguese, so I did a filter to accept then. *BUT*, then I
discovered that many words don't test if an >127 code came from function keys
or normally. I did fix everything, but there were changes in many files. I
don't have time, at the moment, to identify this files (when I upgrade my
version, I actually compare all files, because there are many little things
that I'm interested too). I could send you all the modified sources (Something
like 120Kb compressed, I think), but how?

                              (8-DCS)

P.S.: I can enter ANY char I want now, even in the SED. But, in the sed, the
chars I can enter are restricted to the ones that filter returns... I activated
an unused funtion that enables SED too accept any character (without that
Slooooow window).
