$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 man -d xrandr
I'm not sure I understand the problem, but in X, try:
LOCALE=utf-8 xman -notopbox -bothshown
I have that in ~/.fluxbox/fluxbox-menu:
[exec] (Xman) {LOCALE=utf-8 xman -notopbox -bothshown}
and it displays manpages with no flaws so far that I've seen (and I
have seen the flaws you mention at CLI man blah). GL.

No luck, still get the same garbage.

garbages in man page output
Hi, I have garbage outputs in the man page of my newly installed Debian, like: There are a few global options. Other options modify the last output that is specified in earâ 8090 lier parameters in the command line. Multiple outputs may be modified at the same time by passâ 8090 ing multiple --output options followed immediâ 8090 ately by their corresponding modifying options. Previously, I fix the problem with LANG='C' or LANG=en, but it doesn't work now. Please help. thanks -- Tong (remove underscore(s) to reply) http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/ http://xpt.sourceforge.net/tools/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
