Having rebuilt LyX-1.3.6 to use XForms instead of Qt, I'm seeing a different problem enterying Cyrillics.
Whatever I type is no longer ignored as it was under Qt, but shown using a different encoding. Looks like iso8859-1 symbols, rather than KOI8-U. What else is there to set and why is it not set automatically based on the value of LANG environment variable? Thanks! -mi
