One byte for ASCII, two to four bytes for everything else. It should last them a very long time. Unfortunately UTF8 doesn't just include new glyphs it includes new control characters. Most things ignore them, a few throw up on them, and a precious few actually process them properly.

I take it various displays can't really handle them as they print differently when I cut and paste them from unix to windows and different applications under each system.

Depends whether these various displays are variously displaying UTF-8. You can't dump UTF-8 things in another code set and have it understoood. One glorious day, everything will be UTF-8. Until then, we have this. Smilie
