Further experience showed that Xterm's standard font doesn't do Unicode & mouse-scroll doesn't work in Most etc, so I've gone back to Konsole & settled on a tolerable font in 'fixed misc' at size 13 . > I don't use gwenview much.

Yes, Gwenview has been quite useable for some time now & the KDE 4 version is a bit of an improvement generally. Useable alternatives are Thunar (icon view) & Feh (thumbnail view) to browse around & Feh (image view) to look at the actual pictures. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
