But as was mentioned, you can reconfigure your system locales. locales describe a set composed of your location, language and language encoding: ru_RU.KOI8-R means Russian in Russia using KOI8-R encoding Here CN is China, HK is Hong Kong and TW is Tiwan. big5 is for 'big 5 encoding'. zh_CN.gb18030 zh_CN.gbk zh_CN.UTF-8 zh_HK.big5 zh_HK.UTF-8 zh_TW.big5 zh_TW.UTF-8 You may want 'zh_CN.UTF-8'. There is also the choice between simplified chinese and traditional chinese. If you want to use input Chinese, you will also need to add support for a chinese-compatible input method. -- | .''`. == Debian GNU/Linux == | my web site: | | : :' : The Universal |mysite.verizon.net/kevin.mark/| | `. `' Operating System | go to counter.li.org and | | `- http://www.debian.org/ | be counted! #238656 | | my keysever: subkeys.pgp.net | my NPO: cfsg.org |
