HI
I have a problem writing Greek accents in KDE. I am using KDE 3.5 on freebsd 
6.1 and although i can type Greek in all applications i cannot put accents. 
Accents are placed by hitting the ";" before the letter. When i do so though 
nothing happen, in fact even the letter is not appearing on the screen.  I 
have tried typing export LC_CTYPE=el_GR on the console and rebooting but then 
when i type locale i get:

 LANG=
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=

Moreover although i can read greek on konqueror and opera i cannot do so on 
Kwrite  or i cannot read greek filenames on the desktop, eventhough ei can 
give greek names on files whithout accents ofcourse.

any help would be very apreciated
Thanks
Andreas
