Hi all, I am trying to get swedish characters to work properly on my debian box. I have it working perfectly in rxvt and in vim (if I start it from inside mutt, as now when I am composing this).
BUT! If I start vim from an ordinary rxvt shell It displays escape sequences å is \xe5 ä is \xe4 ö is \xf6 some other strange chars ´ is \xb4 ¤ is \xa4 £ is \xa3 all other characters work. I hope the above is readable! Also inside Mutt when I read mail all those chars are displayed as "?" signs. But if I cat the mail in /var/spool/mail/xxxx it shows those chars correctly. So might this be 2 separate problems or are they connected ? I have been messing around with all sorts of things concerning language support and I am a bit lost so If someone could set me on the correct path I would be very grateful. $: env LANG=C LESSCHARSET=latin1 $: cat .inputrc set meta-flag on set output-meta on set convert-meta off $: XF86Config Section "Keyboard" Protocol "Standard" AutoRepeat 500 5 XkbKeycodes "xfree86" XkbTypes "default" XkbCompat "default" XkbSymbols "en_US(pc105)+se" XkbGeometry "pc" EndSection $: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc setenv LANG C setenv LC_CTYPE iso_8859_1 ... Hmm echo $LC_CTYPE isn't showing anything. Thats what I can think of information vise. I also did som changes to locales but I don't think anything really happened there. Tried to follow a red-hat howto but couldn't find /usr/lib/kbd/keytables/ .
