How can I use characters other than ASCII in Java?

Java Programmer's FAQ
The article explains how to add fonts to Sun's JDK, using the font.properties file. [If anyone has summarised the information, please send it in]. 6.18 I did a read from a Buffered stream, and I got fewer bytes than I specified.

Can I send and receive non-ASCII text?

Wiki: GaleFaq
Anyway, to get gsend and gsub to properly interpret non-ASCII text, you'll need to tell them what encoding to use for reading in and sending out. You can do this by setting the gale variable GALE_CHARSET (either in the environment, or one of the conf files) to an appropriate.

How do I send control characters or function keys?

Expect FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Sending control characters is easy: just write a send command and enter the control character you want to send. I like to enter most control characters literally - since the resulting script is more readable. However, your editor has to allow this. For example, suppose you want to send a Control-A. Conventionally, most editors display this as ^A, but you can't just enter ^ and A. (This will just send those two characters. See similar questions...

Why don't I see pauses between characters sent with send -s?

Expect FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
From: jcarney@mtl.mit.edu (John C. Carney) Newsgroups: comp.lang.tcl Date: 12 Aug 1996 17:32:54 GMT Organization: Massachvsetts Institvte of Technology I am trying to use expect to spawn the kermit program. It then is supposed to dial the modem and procede. When I run kermit from the shell, it has no problem dialing the modem. However, when kermit is spawned by expect, it will not dial. I thought perhaps the input stream was too fast for kermit and tried send -s. See similar questions...
