Yeah, this stuff is all tricky to get working right. I recommend first trying to get to the point where you can cat and less files with funny characters in them, and then introduce something like Sup. (And that's typically the point where you see the difference between ncurses.so with and without the patch.) > Using gnome-terminal or xterm with "TERM=xterm" now lets umlauts etc > look like, e.g. "JM-CM-6rg-Hendrik"). The reported character set is > "utf8". Probably the umlauts themselves aren't in utf8. I have had success with gnome-terminal and TERM=xterm, so I bet you can get this combo to work. Try changing your locale from utf8 to en_GB.iso-8859-15 here (if you're using Ubuntu, you can edit /etc/default/locale an re-log in, then `locale` to check.) -- William <wmorgan-...@masanjin.net> _______________________________________________ sup-talk mailing list sup-talk@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/sup-talk
