Now, the subject _should_ read: |
| 2 |
Mutt and ÅåÄäÖö characters |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
The problem is that when I begin composing a message in mutt and it asks |
| 5 |
for address and subject, the scandinavian characters (among others) are |
| 6 |
garbled as I type them in. This is puzzling, because mutt's pager displays |
| 7 |
them just fine on received mail, vim works like a charm, and the terminal |
| 8 |
has no problem with those characters either. Situation is the same under |
| 9 |
pure console and X. I have found no help on the net; this does not seem |
| 10 |
to be a common grief. Mutt's input line seems to be the only thing |
| 11 |
affected. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I'm running an utf-8 environment, and the muttrc are in utf-8 according |
| 14 |
to vim. Output of `locale` is: |
| 15 |
LANG= |
| 16 |
LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.utf8 |
| 17 |
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX" |
| 18 |
LC_TIME="POSIX" |
| 19 |
LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8 |
| 20 |
LC_MONETARY="POSIX" |
| 21 |
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX" |
| 22 |
LC_PAPER=fi_FI.utf8 |
| 23 |
LC_NAME="POSIX" |
| 24 |
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX" |
| 25 |
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX" |
| 26 |
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX" |
| 27 |
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX" |
| 28 |
LC_ALL= |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Setting LC_ALL=fi_FI.utf8 won't remove the problem. I have even played |
| 31 |
with $send_charset, which is set to "us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8", but |
| 32 |
changing it to "iso-8859-1" or "utf-8" made no difference. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I'm really at a loss as to what causes this problem, or how to fix it. |
| 35 |
Help would be appreciated. |
