Dudes, i've been trying to avoid posting here since
I don't think it's the right place to ask for help ... but I've been searching
many mail lists, man pages, newsgroups... and unix-users in Brazil are not
always as kind as they can be.
I came with a weird problem here at my new FreeBSD
installation (FreeBSD 4.7, I Used to be a Linux user before it) when I got gtk+
2.2 (and the whole gnome 2.2) running. I can see most of my special caracters
used in portuguese (such as á, é, í, ó, ú and their capitals) except for ç
(which renders as a weird c with an acute over it). I've been seeing linux users
checking their /etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules and changing the "xim" locales to
"pt_BR" instead of "ko:ja:zh"
as thought it probably is the same solution I would
need to use here in FreeBSD....
so I found the file at
/usr/X11R6/etc/gtk-2.0/gtk.immodules
and saw that the locale path (which were
/usr/share/locale on linux machines) was NONE/lib/locale here at FreeBSD...
tried to put the /usr/share/locale (place where there are some locales in my
system) and changed the locales... nothing happened...
when I try to send things with these special
characters over the internet using GTK+ applications... it sends some weird
(probably) utf-8 encoded chars...
same happens when I save some file to disk using
these GTK applications... I can see them perfectly in GTK apps... but when I try
to look at them at the terminal or everyother application without GTK it renders
some utf-8 encoded chars... pretty weird...
could anyone help me ?
And Again... I am sorry to post here... I just have
no one to talk about anymore
