characters mangled when using sftp
Hi,
When I used psftp or filezilla to transfer text documents from my PC to my linux server the quote mark character is changed to a question mark. In VI these single characters are displayed as an escaped character such as ~S, ~R, or ~T. I tried to add this to my .bash_profile but it did not correct this problem. export LANG=en_US.ISO-8859-1 export SUPPORTED=en_US.ISO-8859-1 As it stands when I upload large documents I have written to my web site I have to hand edit each and every occurence of these quotation marks. The same thing happens when I use Spanish accents. Please help. |
Did you try looking for any related settings in your sftp programs? Not quite the same, but I remember that I use to have putty set to the wrong character set and I got the mangled letters - maybe the problem is on the client side.

There are no such settings in filezilla not sftp. I had no problems when I was using another Linux server. Something is different on this new Linux server with regard to codepage or character set.
