#52420: neomutt: Umlauts, accents are wrongly displayed ------------------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: michele.marcionelli@… | Owner: leonardo@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: neomutt | ------------------------------------+------------------------ Comment (by cal@…): Try `unset LC_CTYPE` (and possibly also `unset LC_ALL`) before starting neomutt. It seems that a number of Terminals have a feature to helpfully automatically set the locale variables, but end up setting them to an unsupported value. Not setting them does not cause problems, but setting them to unsupported values renders special characters broken. I bisected this to https://github.com/neomutt/neomutt/commit/f28b4cace4a1f26eace3120ae08e0b9435..., which comes from mutt upstream, so is not a neomutt problem. In iTerm, unticking "Preferences > Profiles > $yourprofile > Terminal > Environment > Set locale variables automatically" and opening a new Shell session fixed this for me. Terminal.app has a similar setting. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52420#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
