Hi! With the release of Red Hat 8.0, the default for terminal output
appears to be set up to be UTF-8. I base this, in part, upon my LANG
environment variable being set to "en_us.UTF-8". Among other things, the
"man" command seems to be putting out multi-byte characters. An example
appears to be (octal) 342 200 220, which I am guessing is supposed to be
some kind of dash or minus sign.
I am logged in to a RH 8.0 system using K-95 2.1.3. My TERM environment
variable is "vt320", and my K-95 terminal type is set to "vt320". My K-95
character set is set to "utf8".
When I run the "man" command, and it wants to display the character
described above, on my screen I see a hollow rectangle. What am I doing
wrong? Thanks!
