Hello, okay, i somehow managed to change my system locale to LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=en_US:en
i restarted my system, but Scid still does not display slovak characters. Sorry, i do not want to be annoying, but this really seems to be a Scid problem. Other applications like my browser or mail client all recognize slovak characters without a problem. eboard too does not display them, but at least silently "drops" them, which means it removes all diacritica and shows the simple latin character. Scid, unfortunately, turns every slovak character into a 3- or 4-character sequence including symbols which makes a word with 2 or more slovak characters totally unreadable. again i request your help on this topic; it might be useful for users from some other countries, too. thank you very much! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, in ubuntu is utf-8 standard. On gentoo there is a very good guide: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/guide-localization.xml maybe this helps you. Am Dienstag, 21.
