Well, let's put it this way. Create a text file named "test.1" containing the following: .TH TEST "1" .SH NAME test \- it's elementary Now, run "man -l test.1". Does your fontless, stock VT show an ASCII apostrophe or a little block? If it shows a block, your setup is broken, no matter what LANG is set to. If it shows an ASCII apostrophe, I would be grateful if you could send me the name of a stock Debian manpage that shows a block instead of an apostrophe (preferably with its owning package name and version, if you aren't using plain Etch). I would very much like to track down the problem and file bug reports on the offending manpages.
