Not last I checked... > They're supposed to be just for display, aren't they? it definitely does, though maybe not by default. try setting your locale to something like th_TH on a debian system that doesn't support it, and then try and use apt (it still works, it just bitches a whole lot when it gets to a perl script). of course, if it wasn't complaining to him in the first place about that, then it probably wasn't the problem :) how about just pattern replacing those 0xA0 characters with 0x20 (regular space) and seeing how things go? --sean Attachment:
