I think that fixing encodings is also part of mike push. I just saw these changesets and may be we should open tickets to see if we want to have a look. But encodings is a hell.
Started looking at it. It is pretty scary in how many places raw characters are created without honoring any encodings etc... big question is: should everything be bakcward compatible with older, non-unicode supporting VMs? Right now we check against slot 7 if there is unicode available in the key event buffer, otherwise we go through the default encoder. Michael
