In my experience an appropriate locale must be set or else the characters are considered "non-printable". Here's the relavant part from my bash .profile file: export LANG=en_IE@euro export LC_ALL=en_IE@euro export LANGUAGE=en_IE@euro export LC_CTYPE=en_IE@euro Normally my locale would be de_DE, but I don't like German messages in mutt and other programs. en_IE was the only possibility to get the Euro sign in my locale :-) Finally some advantage in having Irland in the EU ;-) Gerhard -- mail: gerhard <at> bigfoot <dot> de registered Linux user #64239 web: http://www.cs.fhm.edu/~ifw00065/ public key at homepage public key fingerprint: DEC1 1D02 5743 1159 CD20 A4B6 7B22 6575 86AB 43C0 reduce(lambda x,y:x+y,map(lambda x:chr(ord(x)^42),tuple('zS^BED\nX_FOY\x0b')))
