I've searched google and freebsd mailing list archives and finally I need to turn to you guys. I'm experiencing problems with the 8-bit character set(s) on freebsd (4.6.2). I want to use ISO-8859-1 (or -15) set on my box and I've managed to set the following: ------------------------- /etc/rc.conf keymap="finnish.cp850" ------------------------- what's the difference between cp850 and iso maps? iso does not work, but cp850 does. this is for bash (which i use for shell): ------------------------- /etc/profile LC_ALL=fi_FI.ISO8859-1; export LC_ALL LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.ISO8859-1; export LC_CTYPE LANG=fi_FI; export LANG # even tried the old way set meta-flag on set convert-meta off set input-meta on set output-meta on ------------------------- Okay, with these settings bash does have 8bit support. Problems: 1. pine 8bit support does not work in local box(even iso-8859-1 defined in pine conf). 2. When I ssh to another box, for example a linux box it complains about wrong terminal (cons25l1, changed it at /etc/ttys) type. I change it to vt100 and still the 8bit support does not work on remote box. I suspect the problem is freebsd terminal (cons25l1) settings. This is annoying coz in linux I didn't even have to think about these... Some sort of automation would be cool (like a line in rc.conf). :-) Summary: any good URL to give for step-by-step info?
