Yes, you are probably correct as far as display goes and as long as you are talking only about bconsole, which is why I recommended the user try bconsole. wx-console uses Unicode if I remember right, so display may not even correct. On the input side, if you do not input UTF-8 none of the consoles will work correctly (possibly the gnome console will correctly detect alternate LANG settings). > > Meaning if you run the console on the same machine that files are on, > the filenames should look the same?
