I have a macbook pro with german keyboard layout.
In the X11 xterm application, when I type umlaute like ä,ö,ü,ß, then they don’t show up. And ß shows the history like the up-arrow.
On the other hand if I start emacs in x11 (not in the xterm) then everything works fine.
How can I configure X11 xterm to type all characters?
And yes, I checked the “follow system keyboard layout” checkbox in the preferences panel.
Thanks,
alex.
Hm, works on my box. What is your LC_CTYPE? Mine reads LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8, and i have checked .inputrc with no umlaut specialties found.
