On Mon, Jun 26, 2006 at 10:35:59AM -0400 I heard the voice of J.R. Oldroyd, and lo! it spake thus: > > I have: > unset LANG > LC_COLLATE=POSIX > LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 Doing this (even just LC_CTYPE) gives me the same problem as just setting LANG; those combined characters aren't combined. > In .Xdefaults: > xterm*vt100.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 > xterm*vt100.utf8Fonts.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso10646-1 I actually use -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1, which doesn't have all the chars (the Ethiopian shows up as boxes), but it's about the only semicondensed font I can find that works. Normal width is just WAY too wide for my eye. I do wish I could find a better semicondensed, though... > Of course, to get to use this usefully for things like email, you'll > need to get ncurses and xterm working and then also a mailer and an > editor. Mutt and nvi work fine in UTF-8 for me. Fortunately, those parts seem to work (in this quick tests I've done) :) -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd_at_over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.Received on Mon Jun 26 2006 - 13:40:08 UTC
