Hello,
I changed my locale from C to en_US.utf8. All my applications which I
have running under screen have accepted the new encoding upon restart.
But screen, which would be a pain to restart at this point, has not
detected this.
Is there a way to tell screen that my locale has changed without a
restart?
Does
:utf8 on on
do what you want?
ftmp:
utf8 [on|off [on|off]]
Change the encoding used in the current window. If utf8 is enabled,
the strings sent to the window will be UTF-8 encoded and vice versa.
Omitting the parameter toggles the setting. If a second parameter is
given, the display's encoding is also changed (this should rather be
done with screen's "-U" option). See also "defutf8", which changes the
default setting of a new window.
