I fixed this problem by setting my locales (LC_*) in my shell's rc file(s), then adding that information to /etc/environment. I would get the ?'s if I started an `aterm -e mutt' from a bbkeys key binding, but I didn't get the ?' if I started an xterm, then manually typed in `mutt' Also, you might have to: cd /usr/lib/locale then run: localedef -c -i en_US -f ISO-8859-1 en_US (or whatever..) And of course set up your LC_* environment in your shell rc file and /etc/environment. Mine looks like: (~)% locale LANG=en_US LC_CTYPE="en_US" LC_NUMERIC="en_US" LC_TIME="en_US" LC_COLLATE="en_US" LC_MONETARY="en_US" LC_MESSAGES="en_US" LC_PAPER="en_US" LC_NAME="en_US" LC_ADDRESS="en_US" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US" LC_ALL=en_US > Any suggestions? I'm no expert, by any means, but that solved my problem. If that doesn't work, email me off list and we'll try to figure it out -- unless of course another Debian user on this list knows more about locales. -- Brian Clark | Avoiding the general public since 1805!
