Hello,
configuring mutt for displaying special characters properly.
Problem:
German Umlauts and the tree "graphic" characters are not displayed properly.
I found out that the "set charset" variable in .muttrc changes the behaviour, but I have not found the correct setting. Does anyone know?
Here is what I get on the qkonsole output for different settings for the german Umlaut ue ("ü") which is MIME-encoded as "=FC" in the mbox file:
set charset="us-ascii": "?"
set charset ="ISO-8859-1": "\374"
set charset="utf-8": "\303\274"
I have set the keyboard mapping in the Settings / Keyboard program to "german", which lets me create the Umlauts using the Fn-key (Fn-u creates ü, so the characters themselves are there).
So how can I tell mutt to send the correct code to the qkonsole?
Or how can I tell qkonsole to decode mutt's sequences correctly?
Thanks
daniel
