Is there a particular process required to run ctwm in a say UTF-8 locale? I start ctwm with `exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch ctwm' from .xinitrc, followed by a plain startx. I tried adding LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 above it in .xinitrc, but no luck. I am testing with the menu entry: "왜！" f.nop which appears as ?V!* for me in the menu list Is there a "better" or more recommended way of launching ctwm? _ hopefully sending normal text will be a lot easier for me now
