I've tried cases such as * no LC_* variables defined in the enviroment at all * LC_ALL=en_GB.ISO-8859-1 * LC_ALL=en_US.iso-8859-1 * LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8 etc but this doesn't seem to make any difference. There doesn't seem to be much under /usr/share/locale under than a lot of */LC_MESSAGES/* stuff. Perhaps I'm missing some bits in my locale installation. > To display UTF-8 with ncurses, you need the wide-character version > libncursesw. ISO-8859-1 works either way. :-( not here yet. I'm sure that mutt 1.2.5 displayed accented characters OK. I've deleted the 1.2.5 binary now so I can't go back to recheck. Thanks for the info anyway.
