Yes, I can see the @ sign with xforms 0.88 under Linux and Digital Unix.
What's sort of annoying is that I see the space too. Example: I'm writing
a program that displays @xxx, where "xxx" is three numeric digits like
"123". By placing a space before the @ sign I now get " @123" and what
I'm looking for is just "@123". I know it sounds like I'm being
obnoxiously picky, but I had high hopes that there was a simple solution
for displaying text that started with an @ sign.
Thanks for the suggestions.
