I remember that issue. I thought that we wanted some kind of escape syntax... Like what HTML uses with &#xxxx; perhaps. This would allow to edit xorg.conf on systems which are not UTF-8 clean. But perhaps it's a non-goal. How big is the code to convert (we need both ways, right)? -- Pete ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
