The following issue has been CLOSED ====================================================================== https://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=2968 ====================================================================== Reported By: skayser Assigned To: skayser ====================================================================== Project: xterm Issue ID: 2968 Category: regular use Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: closed Resolution: open Fixed in Version: ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2008-12-10 15:27 CET Last Modified: 2014-02-14 15:57 CET ====================================================================== Summary: Encoding options (-u8, -lc) documented but not supported Description: The man page documents various encoding related options that are _not_ supported by the provided xterm binary. Could you please enable these options (i guess --enable-i18n and/or --enable-wide-chars should do the trick)?
$ man -M /opt/csw/share/man xterm ... -lc Turn on support of various encodings according to the users' locale setting, i.e., LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, or LANG environment variables. This is achieved by turning on UTF-8 mode and by invoking luit for ... -u8 This option sets the utf8 resource. When utf8 is set, xterm interprets incoming data as UTF-8. This sets the wideChars resource as a side-effect, but the UTF-8 mode set by this option prevents it from ... $ /opt/csw/bin/xterm -u8 /opt/csw/bin/xterm: bad command line option "-u8" $ /opt/csw/bin/xterm -lc /opt/csw/bin/xterm: bad command line option "-lc" ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0005952) skayser (administrator) - 2009-04-10 11:12 https://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=2968#c5952 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated version (243) including UTF-8 support has been pushed to current. xterm-243,REV=2009.04.09-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz xterm-243,REV=2009.04.09-SunOS5.8-sparc-CSW.pkg.gz Support for other locales via luit is not yet available. luit is part of XFree86, but Sun only ships it starting with nv_85. Will have to see whether to --enable-mini-luit in xterm or compile a stand-alone luit version.
