Greetings, Context: Debian unstable. I have the ucs fonts package installed, as well as several classical polytonic Greek fonts, which render very well in Mozilla Firefox. I can start an xterm thusly:
xterm -u8 -fn \ '-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1' It displays the "UTF-8-demo.txt" file nicely, with the sole exception of Amharic Ethiopian, which is displayed as outline boxes per character. Since switching my locale to en_US.UTF-8 (dpkg-reconfigure locales), whenever I use any pager (more, less, most) to read a man page I get strange chars, e.g.: man procmailrc (PAGER=/usr/bin/most) yields: "delivering and [EMAIL PROTECTED] recipes.." That intercalating pattern -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- is throughout the man page. I have tried the same in a utf-8 xterm with the same result. Is there some specific font I should be using? How do I get a clean man page in an xterm/aterm/rxvt/mlterm with a UTF-8 locale? output of locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= Any hints or help would be greatly appreciated.
