Weird, indeed!, considering you should have started mutt like so: chr...@box:~$ LANG=C mutt > I run consolechars -d. But the problem is not just a mutt problem. For > example, the response to sensors is I still wonder why you run "consolechars -d" as that OVERRIDES any changes you make. Obviously, starting mutt in that way only affects mutt.
