I was in error there - it's on Windows which uses charset "CP1252" and 0xab is the 1252 encoding of that character, not ASCII. > Generally that works properly and the double-chevron character displays > fine, except when that character is the last on the line of text, Don't worry, I found the problem and it was down to something my code was doing wrong. When it finds a line ending with this special character it adds a Pango attribute to display the line in bold, and the code was setting the end_index in that attribute to the end of the line - 1, and that is wrong. This was probably trying to not include the final '\n', but Pango doesn't include the character at end_index anyway, so setting end_index to the end of the line would have been the correct thing to do for that. Setting it to the end of the line - 1 puts end_index mid-way in that 16-bit UTF-8 character, and that is what was upsetting Pango.
