Package: tn5250 Version: 0.17.3-2 Severity: wishlist Tags: l10n It would be great if tn5250 would use the wide character API for output to integrate better into UTF-8 locales.
see: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Unicode-HOWTO.html#ss6.1 As a workaround one currently needs to - set the locale to a ISO-8859 variant (export LANG=de_DE) - change the Termial character set to the equivalent character set to insure the correct display for a map like 273.
