Hi,
I've got a small annoyance in Etch, but I think it was there in Sarge, too.
I connect to the Debian machine via ssh (usually from OSX Terminal, but
also from PuTTy on Windows the same happens).
The machine has LANG="en_US.UTF-8". I need to type accented characters
from the ISO-8859-1 charset (such as "à" and "è"), and this setting
should allow me to do it, being UTF-8.
Indeed, I can happily type them on the command line, and I can see them
in filenames, but I cannot use them in Emacs (21.4.1) or other text
editors (tried vi and pico): it looks like some other kind of
non-printable code is inserted when I press one of those keys.
Does anyone know how to fix it? Sounds like a FAQ to me, but I couldn't
find anything useful on Google today.
