I have a bad news for you: you cannot use utf-8 for man pages source. There is however a good news for you, as French user: there is support to display in utf-8 if (and only if) the man page is encoded in iso-8859-1. it should work automatically if you have a system properly configured (otherwise, it is just a matter of changing -Tlatin1 with -Tutf8 in some config file of man) So, for users of languages encodable in latin1 that means they can continue to see their man pages when switching to utf-8. For others, that means they won't be able to read their manpages properly when switching to utf-8. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (should it be fr_FR.utf8@euro ?) from li18nux.org or the naming "@euro" is deprecated now; as the FRF is no longer current, the locale fr_FR implies euro. you should use "fr_FR.UTF-8" as your locale name -- Ki ça vos våye bén, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.srtxg.easynet.be/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975 -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
