Set it to UTF-8 outside xterm. For example set it in some xterm, then start in this xterm another xterm. The new xterm should be able to accept Cyrillic. If you set LC_CTYPE in a xterm this affects only programs started in it, but not the xterm itself. Anton Zinoviev, [EMAIL PROTECTED] P.S. I apologize to Drew for a copy of this mail I send to him.
