That makes me think that's a problem of font encoding. I have seen
that sometimes on Linux (not in text input but more in text
rendering). I think that one possibility is that newer versions of
X have a different default font encoding, or handle font encoding
differently, than what REBOL expects. So if you happen to have a
setup where the default font encoding is the one REBOL expects, it
works; otherwise, it doesn't.
Anyone has done X programming in the past and can validate this
hypothesis, or elaborate on it?
Regards,
Gabriele.
