Does this work on Windows in the windowed DOS sessions (i.e. not in
full-screen mode)?
To do it on Linuxx, you will need the X fonts. There's the intlfonts
distribution on GNU FTP sites which you can use for this.
Emacs currently doesn't support this functionality in the DJGPP port, it
simulates non-existing fonts with ASCII characters (e.g. c cedilla is
displayed as {c,}).
