- if I do that with LC_ALL=en_GB.UTF8 the results might as well be
gibberish - almost every LATIN1 character is rendered wrongly, and
almost no non-latin characters appear. I think this is because I have
ttf-arkpandora installed and it decides aerial is the best match.
So, I look forward to your definitive work on fonts ;)
"UTF-8" should be spelled exactly like this: with "-" before "8". As for
Latin1 characters shown incorrectly, that also might be due to the fact that
you used the old-style en_GB locale earlier. Latin1 characters are encoded
differently in en_GB and en_GB.UTF-8. To get proper rendering in
en_GB.ISO-8859-1 (aka en_GB), do this:
xterm -lc -fa "DejaVu Sans Mono" -fs 12

Or set the "*locale: true" resource.
Note: I don't have ttf-arkpandora here.
