Good catch. setfont used to set all ttys at once (back in kernel 2.4 I
think) but now it's a per-tty setting. I think I used a
unicode-enabled font as a template for drawing it, but I'm sure it is
incomplete... Trying to load (with setfont) ther fonts (currently
found in /Programs/KBD/Settings/kbd/consolefonts (weird, but it's
where KBD is putting them lately...)) might help.
