If you're using UTF-8 character set, you need to execute "stty iutf8", so that a "stty -a" reports back "iutf8". For non-UTF-8, the command to be executed is "stty -iutf8" and accordingly "stty -a" should report "-iutf8".
Gnome-terminal sets this according to the initial character set of the terminal, but does not (could not reliably) update this if switching encoding later. I assume your profile is set to KOI8-R by default and switch to UTF-8 during runtime, is that correct? Please try what happens if your profile is configured to have UTF-8 by default. It should work out of the box then. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1360419 Title: Buffer containing russian Unicode charecters is not cleaning after pressing Backspace To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1360419/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
