Here things display okay, but trying to erase a multi-byte character ends up only deleting one byte; ie (in pseudo code): "echo test:é<backspace><enter>"->"test:<0x3>" Which clearly shows the editing is not being utf-8 aware. It also displays badly if you start doing multi-line commands: the term&shell get highly confused as the zsh is non-utf-8 enabled. That's with the cygwin default zsh 4.3.4.
Now, compiling a 4.3.5 using a simple ./configure && make I simply dont get any utf-8 displaying on the line editor anymore. Anything non-ascii is displayed as one-byte control codes. I also tried ./configure --enable-multibyte with the same result. LC_ALL set to C.UTF-8 in all cases. Cygwin freshly installed. Also tried LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8(which shouldnt exist) and it did not work either. Setting LC_ALL=C restores the cygwin zsh 4.3.4 behaviour: it displays fine non-ascii codes but fails when trying to erase/move around them(obviously it's considering them as one byte but the terminal is seeing them as utf-8, which creates confusion). >?I am using: zsh 4.3.5 (i686-pc-cygwin) ( compiled from src ) >?I just did $export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 >?cmd line editting didn't seem ill affected and worked fine. >?Paul-Kenji Cahier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>...
