I played around a bit with the iso 14755 support of `urxvt' (ISO 14755 is a standard for entering and viewing unicode characters and character codes
using the keyboard). for me, in ksh the input method does not work (i.e.
in urxvt press and hold shift+ctrl and enter the code of the desired
letter, e.g. 03b1 for a greek alpha and then release shift/ctrl ). upon
release of the shift/ctrl keys the letter is supposed to be inserted. for
me this works with tcsh, bash, zsh, but not with ksh. in ksh, the screen
shows a caret followed by an inverted question mark and the actual
(single) byte content of what is inserted is octal 377.

any ideas?

Could you send the output of echo ${!LA*} ${!LC_*}, please?

LC_CTYPE

(but only after first stumbling about the `set -H' which I have in my .kshrc ;-))

nothing else is explicitly defined. the locale setting thus is:

LANG=
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL=

which it is in the started ((tc)|b|z)sh subshells, too, were the problem does not occur. so I presume the locale is not the problem or am I missing something?

thanks
