OK thanks. The keyword "Cork encoding" gives a few enlightening references on 
the web. Definitely a strange matter: character encoding in TeX. I would 
really favor some solution using Unicode in TeXmacs and encapsulate the 
TeX-encoding in the font rendering engine. But that's probably a matter 
deeply connected within the design of the core of TeXmacs... :-(

Ciao,
Nobbi
