Because, as I understand it, Linux has underlying support for double-byte
characters. Not all versions of Windows do. Windows 98, as I mentioned I'm
using, doesn't. You can install add-ons that provide that support, but 
only in Office applications, so that excludes anything written in Euphoria.

See above ... and bitmaps work, so I'm only seeking a working solution.
