I haven't dared try it yet, since I think it would be a nightmare to
have a mixed system, especially in the filesystem.

Is this a valid locale on your system? 

Here's what I get under FreeBSD:

  % locale -a |grep sv_SE
  sv_SE.ISO8859-1
  sv_SE.ISO8859-15
  sv_SE.UTF-8

I tried setting my LANG to "sv_SE.UTF-8", changed my title font to
"-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-12-120-75-75-m-70-iso10646-1"
and started ctwm.

The first thing I notice is that, suddenly, the title bars are /a lot/
higher than before. There's a lot of space around that wasn't there
before.

I started an xterm in UTF-8 mode and tried to set the title, but got
nothing for the Swedish characters. I'm not sure the shell was UTF-8
clean, though.

The same thing happens if I use -title to xterm in an f.exec in
.ctwmrc, but then again, that goes through the shell as well.

A simple menu item like this:

  menu "foo"
  {
     "räksmörgås" f.nop
  }

didn't work either. The result being "rksmrgs".

Is this what you see as well?
