25f418e887 Support UTF-8 in shmemfonts w/ fallbacks 2012-11-18 20:14:57 -08:00

ac52d41144 Unicode Text Support
* Some applications now support UTF-8 text through the use of a very
  simple decoder.
* The terminal uses a slow, but accurate method to determine the width
  of a character the first time it is printed to the screen. Characters
  are now stored in the terminal in two bytes, rather than one, and may
  in the future be increased to 3 or 4 bytes to ensure support for
  Unicode supplemental planes.
* A simple font-fallback method is employed in the applications that
  support unicode that will make use of the VL Gothic fonts if the
  DejaVu font does not have a character. No guarantees are made for
  support of writing systems other than extended Latin and Japanese.
