Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 3.4.1.1-1+build1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I strongly wish for an ability to set a default character encoding
without dealing with the LANG environment variable.
Preferably, I wish that a default encoding can be set for each
profile.
If that's difficult for some reason, I wish for an "--encoding"
command-line option.
All solutions I found on the Internet involved setting LANG,
but that affects other aspects than character encoding.
What I need is an ability to change *only* the character
encoding of the terminal.
In the menu, we already have "Terminal" > "Set Character Encoding".
I want THAT ability.
Regards,
Ryo
