I understand that it is possible to see hebrew text in mutt, and I wonder how. I am speaking about console. I am able to read hebrew text in the console aftyer enabling hebrew fonts with: setmetamode metabit > /dev/null echo -n -e "\033(K" consolechars -f iso08.f16.psf.gz (maybe not all these commands are necessary, they are inherited from an old script and it works...) and filtering the output of cat through bidiv and less -r.
In my .muttrc I have: set allow_8bit set charset="iso-8859-8" set display_filter=bidiv but when I receive a message encoded in iso-8859-8, instead of the hebrew chars I see their ascii codes. If some other encoding (for example iso-8859-1) is used, I only see question marks. My locale is C (and I would prefer to leave it that way, because I use mostly english).
