I'm running elinks 0.11.1 on a UTF-8 enabled xterm (uxterm) and I cannot see any charset option (Setup -> Character Set) that remotely looks like UTF-8.
The only thing I have seen that would indicate some form of unicode support in elinks is an option that I found under Setup -> Terminal Options -> UTF-8 I/O. I checked this option and the only difference was that after setting this option I am able to get the double-line box-drawing characters (double lines if I also check "linux or OS/2 frames" under the same "Terminal Options" so I am unsure what this option actually does. What I noticed is that whether this option is set or not does not seem to affect the rendering of languages with a different charset: sites in some West European languages such as German or Spanish or French sometimes are rendered correctly regardless of the setting of this option (main pages of their respective Yahoo! pages for instance..) and sometimes not so correctly - for some strange reason the accented vowels are rendered correctly on http://es.yahoo.com but are replaced by asterisks on http://es.sports.yahoo.com. I also saw some pages in French where some characters are replaced by small squares and the 'c' with a cedilla is rendered by a 'c' followed by a comma. On the other hand some languages such as Portuguese are never rendered correctly: see the home page of Yahoo! Brazil for instance. So I was wondering if there are settings that I could enter in the elinks.conf (or other..) configuration file, if something is broken in my elinks setup, or if internationalization is still a work in progress with elinks and whether unicode settings are planned in future releases.
