[comp.windows.x] editing with 8 bit fonts

dan@scooter.Rosemount.COM (Dan Messinger) (05/15/91)

I am looking for an editor that has some means of entering character
codes that are in the range of 128 to 255.  We have created a special
font with our wierd characters in the upper range.  And vi or xedit are
happy to display those characters if the file already has those character
codes in it.  But so far we haven't found a text editor that can easily
place those character codes into a file.

(I wouldn't be at all surprised that I already have the right editor, but
I don't know the magic to make it work)
