Hi all, I have a problem with the keymap file it.iso.kbd (for Italian language support). In login.conf I have created the following login class: italian:Italian Users Accounts:\ :charset=ISO-8859-1:\ :lang=it_IT.ISO_8859-1:\ :tc=default: In /etc/rc.conf I have: keyrate="fast" keymap="it.iso" font8x16="iso-8x16" font8x14="iso-8x14" font8x8="iso-8x8" In /etc/profile I have: TERM=cons25l1; export TERM LANG=it_IT.ISO_8859-1; export LANG MM_CHARSET=ISO-8859-1; export MM_CHARSET LC_ALL=it_IT.ISO_8859-1; export LC_ALL In Mutt, messages containing accent letters are correctly displayed, but pressing a key labeled with an accent letter results in a wrong character printed on screen (e.g. if I press 'a' with the grave accent I get the character representing carriage return: a 'c' over an 'r' in one character). To have the correct key printed, I've modified the keymap file with the proper characters (e.g. 'a' with the grave accent is ALT+224). Now everything seems to work. If I type an accent letter in a message then Mutt correctly add these fields to the header: Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I can use ISO-8859-1 characters everywhere in the system. Now the question is: is the keymap file it.iso.kbd wrong? Can I use the file I've modified without problems or there's a reason why I should use the file distributed with FreeBSD?
