Nice looking terminal applications

[Maurí­cio <briqueabraque@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

I've realized most of my time in a computer I use
just an input/output line. (I don't even need a
vt100-like terminal, since I use 'ed' or 'sam' as
text-editors.) But I still need X because of
utf-8 fonts and anti-aliasing.

Is it possible to get that without X? Can I get
my text-only terminal to use utf-8 and nice fonts?

Thanks,
Maurício
