[slang-users] slcurses and utf-8

[Michal Ratajsky <michal-lists@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi s-lang people,

I've been trying to figure out why I'm having broken UTF-8 in cfdisk on 
my Ubuntu box. I found out it is compiled with slang-curses support and 
does not explicitly enable UTF-8 support in slang, thus it does not 
work. I believe this should be fixed in slang rather than the 
application to be more compatible with ncurses. What do you think?

Thanks,
Michal
