Thank you a lot for your help.
After stracing on different machines, I found the problem - lack of fonts
So the correct chain to make busybox support specific language with ncurses:
ash.c patch you provided
correct terminfo database (linux works fine for me)
correct font, for example Lat15-Fixed16.psf or cyr-sun16.psfu etc

Hi,
Sorry then I don't know the answer - I spent a long time getting UTF
to work.
This was my writeup , maybe you can find something useful in it.

(Note that setting the LANG in rcS only works when WHDD fires up, if
WHDD is exited and then restarted UTF support won't work as the
variable is then no longer set in that terminal.)
This was my BB mailing list mail with patch attached

It didn't do the trick fr some reason.. here is my config:
CONFIG_UNICODE_SUPPORT=y
# CONFIG_UNICODE_USING_LOCALE is not set
# CONFIG_FEATURE_CHECK_UNICODE_IN_ENV is not set
CONFIG_UNICODE_COMBINING_WCHARS=y
CONFIG_UNICODE_WIDE_WCHARS=y
# CONFIG_UNICODE_BIDI_SUPPORT is not set
# CONFIG_UNICODE_NEUTRAL_TABLE is not set
CONFIG_UNICODE_PRESERVE_BROKEN=y
I also tested with CONFIG_UNICODE_USING_LOCALE enabled with the same
result.
Can it be because of bad terminal set in TERM envvar? Only linux2.2
make TUI looks as it designed.

Hi,
It wont work if set in init, it needs to be set after the shell is
started.
(I made a patch ash.c to force it to always be set though if that is
helpful, if you look at the mailing list archive it should be there)

I tested with
export ru_RU.UTF-8
This was set in init script
I created file with russian chars in it and it also displayed as
???? but it seems to be ls-related. I saw uch an issues in mailing list
In my case it is not displayed at all

Hi,
You need to set LANG, and it needs to be set in the controlling
terminal, e.g.
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Hi all,
I write ncurses based application which utilizes russian
characters. It looks like this:
wchar_t *unicode_string = L"Это юникод";
mvwprintw(stdscr,1,5,"%ls", unicode_string);
And it works pretty well on my desktop.
I enabled all UNCIODE_ config options I found
I enabled terminal: export TERM="linux2.2"
I copied terminfo into my busybox system (kernel 3.2)
When I run my application, only ascii is printed. Unicode chars
are absent: no garbage or whatever.
How it can be workarounded if it is possible. Application is
dynamically linked and all libraries were transferred too
