worked for xfce4-terminal, but that stopped working earlier this

just worked around the problem with mousepad as necessary.)  Does
anyone know the correct fix for this?

Happy New Year, and let's all have a great FreeBSD-based 2021!

Some time in the last six months UTF-8 started working again in
xfce4-terminal (now at version 0.8.10_1, and xfce4-wm-4.16.1).
I'm sorry I can't be more precise.  Thanks to whomever did the
good work!                                            -- George


Great to hear this.

I have noticed XFCE upstream did a lot of work regarding internationalization, so it's quite posssible the updates that happened in the while did fix this too.
