You are right: utf-8 is the same as iso-10646! I changed uxterm to use an iso-10646 font and now it's displaying the characters of a lot of new languages. I put in ~/.Xresources: xterm*font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 The problem with gnuplot "png terminal" also is solved, but the "x11 terminal" still doesn't work properly with unicode strings. I guess that this is a problem between gnuplot and the X server, and not a misconfiguration of my system. Thanks for your suggestion! -- Jakson A.
