responding to the 'monthtool' problems on the Sun:

The special characters to denote the type of entry in the text subwindow
printed as ^?. Making sure the special font was available was not enough
though. I found out that the parameter in the window_create call setting
the font was ignored! it looks like this:

    notesDsply = window_create(frame, TEXTSW,
			       WIN_X, 0,
			       WIN_BELOW, notesPanel,
			       WIN_HEIGHT, WIN_EXTEND_TO_EDGE,
			       WIN_WIDTH, 10000	/* very large number, cuts
			           to actual width */ ,
			>>     WIN_FONT, notesFont,
			       TEXTSW_IGNORE_LIMIT, TEXTSW_INFINITY,
			       0);

I followed this call by:

			       window_set(notesDsply, WIN_FONT, notesFont, 0);

and then it worked fine....

Is there a problem with the sunview library?
