I checked a few other terminals, xterm was the only one that displayed it as it should. The font I'm using in Konsole supports this character, so it must be a bug in Konsole. I tried the command you mentioned and I got this error: >>> print(u'a\u0307') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u0307' in position 1: ordinal not in range(128) >>>
If I don't do the command you mentioned, it doesn't give the error, but it also doesn't print the dots... :( Thanks for the help. ~Luke On Jul 2, 8:30 pm, Andy Ray Terrel <[email protected]> wrote: > I did > > export LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8 > > and it works for me on the mac terminal, but the above command is a > bash thing.
