Hello,
I have a little problem with the german "Umlauts" in vi.
I set the encoding to de (wsconsctl -k -w encoding=de) and the console shows me all "umlauts" correct (oe, ae, ue, ss).
When I READ Mails with mutt (editor there is vi too) vi shows me the correct character (oe, ae and so on). But if I write mails with vi (like now ;)) it's impossible to get the correct characters.
I set LC_ALL to de_DE, and LC_CTYPE to de_DE and so on. I tried it in the csh, bash and in the sh. But the problem is on all shells :(.
I am working with NetBSD 1.5.2 with the GENERIC Kernel.
BTW: In X there is the same problem; on the xterm I have the correct characters. But if I start vi, the "Umlauts (ae,oe,ue,ss)" will not be displayed.
Can anybody help me???
Thanks a lot.
Martin
