Hi,

I'm using Kubuntu 7.10.

When I use gcc to compile C programs, neither konsole nor the tty terminals nor emacs recognizes the UTF-8 encoded quotes in the output of gcc. However, if I redirect the output to a file and open with kate, it recognizes them.

Now if I set the environment variable LC_ALL=C, everything is fine in consoles and emacs, but kate loses UTF-8 recognition. So, I want a way to make Konsole, Terminals and emacs recognize and display the UTF-8 quotes properly rather than disabling UTF completely by setting LC_ALL.

Could someone tell me how to do it?

In konsole, does it work if you do:
Settings [menu] -> Encoding -> Unicode (utf8)

Ooops!! I missed it. Now Konsole is fine.

How about tty terminals and Emacs (both in GUI and terminal)?

I found for emacs too. Only TTY terminals are remaining.

For emacs I added the following line to ~/.emacs
