The bug-gnucobol mailing list is likely not the right place for it, its description says: > This list distributes bug reports and fixes to GnuCOBOL maintainers. I've forwarded this to the users' list as its description says: > List for general questions, user-oriented topics and announcements. Concerning your question: why guess? What happens if you have UTF-8 in your source code? Note: You'll then likely using -free, or otherwise ensure that the number of *bytes* does not exceed the right margin, like moving it to the right with something like -ftext-column=255. A simple DISPLAY `Why not? äüöß" *> I suggest to also try the uppercase ß should work if the source encording matches your terminal - extended screenio may need something "more". What does cobcrun --info says about the screen library used? I *guess* ncursesw? Please report back to the users' list about your test results.
