Hi Frank,

Im planning on experimenting with the Shavian and Quickscript alphabetsnext year.

I guess my chances arent very good for Gemini :(

Hi Stephane,
i have not (yet) figured out how to convert multi-byte characters from
URL-encoding back into in the correct Unicode characters in
Perl. There are a couple of Perl packages claiming to be able to to
that, but the two i have tested didn't work correct with all
characters, for example the German Umlauts äöü are working fine, but
the sharp s (ß) does not. -
Work in progress…
Best regards from Charleston (WV),

a message of 208 lines which said:
sorry for the non-functional box utility! /boxes/ is using the file
//usr/share/boxes/boxes/ on my development-system (Oracle Linux 7.9) to
store the box design-definitions, whereas on the production-server (Centos
8.2) the filename is//usr/share/boxes/ instead. Had to add a couple of lines
to the perl program to determine the correct filename and now it works:
It fails for Unicode characters. I input "deux cafés" in Lagrange and
I get mojibake "deux cafés"
