X-BeenThere: freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: GNOME for FreeBSD -- porting and maintaining List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2006 03:39:13 -0000 How can I change the default character encoding in gnome-terminal? I'd like it to be UTF-8, but it always opens up in "Current Locale (ASCII)". There doesn't seem to be a knob in the Edit -> Profiles window to adjust this, and the docs at "gnome-terminal --help" also don't suggest that there's a way of doing this from the command line when it's launched. Thanks. Jesse Sheidlower
