Just out of curiosity I eliminated the 3 lines in Tekproc.c and charproc.c
of the R3 xterm which read "strip the parity bit" and now displaying of
the upper half of the ISO8859 characters works like a charm (this is ULTRIX
3.0 which has 8-bit-capable tty drivers). The input side still screws up
as none of my german input keys (function keys rebound with xmodmap) is
accepted. If anybody knows a simple fix, I'd be glad to hear about it.
