   This reply is more towards both you and RJ, but how could I go about testing   
   this? Nothing I have requires the processing of a nodelist, but I see   
   UTF-8 characters correctly over here quite a bit. I'm pretty sure my uplink has   
   a connection to everyone in the NAB, so it's possible that your system, Janis,   
   is the one actually messing these up down the line.   
      
   I'm not blaming or pointing fingers, either. So please don't take it the wrong   
   way. I'd like to help fix this, if possible.   
      
   As a matter of fact, when I used Ubuntu I couldn't get ansi codes to render   
   properly in Gnome terminal, yet I've been able to in damn near every other   
   distro I've ever used, including BSDs. Just as well, I don't think I've ever   
   failed at it with xterm, either.
