58 Try running emacs like this:
59 LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" emacs -nw
60
61 If that doesn't help I have no idea why it doesn't work. I am able to
62 display Japanese, Chinese and Korean with xterm (with unicode enabled)
63 and LC_ALL and LANG set to "sv_SE.utf8".
64
65 However, in my .emacs file I have these lines (but I don't think they
66 are required any longer):
67
68 (set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
69 (set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
70 (set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
