    Where can one find the source to roxterm 3.6.2? I went to https://github.com/realh/roxterm, as you suggested, and spent about an hour looking for the source to roxterm 3.6.2, and if it can be found at that website, I failed to find it. As always, thank you in advance for your reply.

    I reverted to roxterm-3.3.2, since I had the source code to it, and no one told me of a more recent version of roxterm that supports multiple encodings. If there is a more recent version of roxterm that supports multiple encodings, I would welcome being told where I can find it. First I globally changed "colour" to "color", and "Colour" to "colour", everywhere; and then I also had to change "Co_lour" to "Co_lor" and "C_olour" to "C_olor" in src/roxterm-config.glade and in src/roxterm-config.ui and...

    Esteemed Colleagues: For the past several weeks, in order to get consistency in the --geometry option (see the recent discussion topic, "How do I get consistency on the --geometry option?"), I have been using the most recent version of roxterm on all of my operating systems. Today I discovered something horrifying. There is no longer support for multiple encodings. It is gone from the "Preferences" menu, it cannot be found in the configuration manager, and underneath /usr/local/src/roxterm-master...

    No one laughs at my jokes. Yes, I know. I'm actually very careful about such things, and have had occasion to be so, I have taught classes all over the English-speaking world (and even a few classes in French, in both Paris and Dakar). A few years ago I taught three consecutive Linux classes in London, at the end of three weeks I was almost remembering to look to the right when first crossing the street. Whenever I'm teaching in a place that requires it, and I say "suppose you have an input file...

    Thank you. I see that ./mscript.py is no longer the build method. Some things have not changed, like I still had to correct all the misspellings of the word "color". This was more than just a global change with a text editor; I still had to change 8 to 7 in roxterm_opt_signal_handler() in lines 3579 and 3581 of src/roxterm.c (it is ungracious to complain about free software that someone else wrote and made available to the public, and I am not complaining, I am very grateful for your work, but if...

    Esteemed Colleagues: I have a multiboot computer on which several operating systems are installed, on which my home directory and certain other directories are shared via ZFS (so chosen because it is, or can be made to be, supported on Linux, the BSD systems, and Solaris). On some of these systems, the --geometry option to roxterm is interpreted in pixels, whereas on others, it is interpreted in characters. Because my .xinitrc startup file is shared, this creates inconsistency. Is there a roxterm...
