I only started using tabbed the other day, but I also have issues with Unicode 
(in my case Japanese showing up as “tofu”).

My intuition is that it is related to font loading and fall backs, so I am 
tempted to take a stab at it by comparing the font loading/handling between 
tabbed, dwm, st, and sent to see if I can spot any difference, as the latter 
three have no issues. If I am correct, it should not be an awfully difficult 
patch.



[dev] [tabbed] utf8 characters not displayed in tabs

2022-08-29 Thread Seb

hi,
I am using xterm under tabbed (v.0.6) and some of the polish characters which are 
in the directory name are not displayed in the tabs and the rest of the name is 
truncated, for instance:


/home/seb/żółty is truncated to /home/seb/żó

when I set the Xresource :

*XTerm*utf8Title: True

then the whole name is displayed with all polish characters but only after I 
change directory to a new location, so the name in tab does not refer to actual 
directory.
