I tried this but this way I get garbage in window headers if they contain symbols outside of ASCII and they do it often. ;-( > On the other hand I don't know what patches RedHat added to 2.2.5. > > It is hard to say anything concrete without knowing details, like whether > an application specifies titles in utf8 or koi8-r.
