Bug 91777 – A few more changes to utf-8.xml

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

less will only work with utf-8 if:

LESSCHARSET=utf-8

is set in the shell's rc file(s).

Also, for man pages, /etc/man.conf needs to be mentioned. The line beginning with NROFF needs to become:

NROFF           /usr/bin/nroff -mandoc -c                                         

You could put this under a new 'Man pages' section towards the end.

Thanks,
Tom

Created attachment 58315 [details, diff]
New sections on Less and Man

The patch should close this Bug. Have added two small sections on man and less
to make sure they render unicode correctly.
