to whom it may concern:
attached is a sendbug report for netscape.
i'm sending this by this method because the sendbug program doesn't seem
to work if you use netscape to read/send mail because you don't have an
aliases file. could you look into this so people who use netscape can
send bug
reports too?
thanks,
isaac chappell

What were you trying to do?
reading websites
What's wrong:
there seems to be something wrong with the fonts. regular
punctuation marks like ' and such are not showing up, being replaced
by question marks (?) like the netscape has no idea what the
character maps to.
What should have happened:
see above.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
i've looked at other fonts in netscape, using both view->character sets
and edit->preferences->appearance->fonts with no success.
