I've no problems with german characters here without .inputrc and all such stuff, only with this in /etc/bashrc: | set meta-flag on | set convert-meta off | set output-meta on In /etc/profile there is: | export LANG=de_DE | export LC_ALL=de_DE That's all, no extra fonts, unicode font maps etc. Greetings, joachim
