   I got the above version from github which I created a v0.9.7.1 tarball from.    
   I have been toying with it using vim's drop to shell command (!) and was   
   thinking it would make an interesting internetted BBS door but haven't really   
   done anything that dramatic ... yet.  Looking at the 'user-agent:' line I get   
   the impression it will play nicely with the correct versions of many web   
   browsers.  As you can tell from my call from vim that I am turing off ansi   
   support, but it does work on the 'linux' terminal, which in this case is a   
   full sized 1080p terminal capable of framebuffer graphics if that is something   
   of interest.  Also works in 'tmux' which I use to split the terminal into   
   smaller terminals that I can bounce around.  No need for a GUI which I   
   currently don't bother with on the EuroPoint.   
      
   Anyhow it works great for creating text documents in other languages which is   
   how I've been testing utf-8 capabilities.  At the moment it looks like   
   right-to-left languages (eg Hebrew) are displaying some proper word wrapping   
   issues which is my latest test as you have witnessed.  I am not sure I'll be   
   taking 'trans' out for a spin other than with vim.  Also note I don't have   
   audio turned on the EuroPoint.  I haven't tested that functionality but I   
   might on my main system that has all the toys including xorg and firefox,   
   which it *should* play nicely with ... I think.  I am not a big fan of GUI   
   apps so I have my doubts it'll get that far.  The BBS door idea has a much   
   better chance of actually happening.
