Did that; unfortunately I see no changes, aka the fix did not "take".
I may
have goofed of course. I'll copy/paste the contents of my misc/
directory,
so you can check the size/date of the fonts I copied :

As you can see, the .pcf.gz files are dated today, I assume they are
the ones
extracted from your archive (did not keep a backup of BL3's original
fonts) 
Yet no sign of the missing characters in a terminal, or links etc.  
:(

Site "interesnyj"... I'll go back there when I have spare time. Looks
like 
the guy mainly deals with russification for MS-Windows; I have that
set-up 
already pretty satisfactorily anyway.

I know what you mean, but don't like it that way. Using pine in an
ssh to 
read/write my mail ?

That is why I have defined e3pi for my text_editor in Lynx options. 
I am using it now, and finding it more and more convenient. Did you 
experiment with the setting ? When you want to fill a form in lynx,
you type
Control_X e, Lynx spawns an instance of e3pi in its stead; you do all

the typing and editing with e3pi (or your favourite editor; I had no
better
choice) and when finished, quit the editor and Lynx is back with the
form 
filled from the external text editor's output. Not bad.

Cheers,
