Hi, Lately I've been trying out gnome 3 in debian. I usually work without a desktop environment with just openbox and a bunch of xterms.
Gnome, it seems, is a utf-8 environment, whereas I usually work in iso-8859-1 (latin1). In gnome when I reply some french emails with accented chars I sometimes get weird wide chars in place of the accented characters in vim. The accented character would appear normally when reading the message in mutt's pager but become a double character in vim's quoted text. Also my own accented characters would appear as ?? to the recipients of my emails. What is the best way to configure mutt, vim and xterm in a gnome setting? Thanks,
