xterm will only accept characters valid for the encoding it uses. By default, that encoding is ISO8859-1. > some letters show up correct and some don't.

The ones with hacek don't. You want to run "xterm -en ISO8859-2". > xterm -fn -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso8859-2 Don't. This only adds to the confusion because xterm will continue to think it uses ISO8859-1 but actually display -2 glyphs. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber [email protected]
