I'd like to have accented and other special characters, e.g., � and �,
display correctly in mutt and ls. (They already show up fine in vim and bash
/ readline.)
After reading the appropriate HOWTO, I determined that I should set LANG to
en_US.ISO-8859-1.*
Now ls shows the accented characters, but many programs (e.g, mutt, gnucash)
segfault immediately after starting. Did I supply the wrong value or are
these programs buggy? Is there a more compatible way to get accented chars?
If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it.
* The format is <language>[_<country>[.<charset>]].
