Re: Web Based Lisp

Hello,

Does anyone know how to get CLIM to show Greek characters
(preferably from UTF-8)?  

Currently, we have a setup of ACL that seems to work fine
internally: it correctly reads and displays Greek encoded with
UTF-8 in Emacs when ACL is started with "-locale el_GR".

Unexpected is: find-locale() returns iso-8859-1 as script.
Overriding this effect with the locale el_GR.utf8 does not work:
the system stops working (comparison of strings fails, and it
returns no results).  We did not try with el_GR.latin7, since the
input files are in UTF-8.

Annoying (and not just unexpected) is that the (UTF-8) output
that is shown in the CLIM window is interpreted as iso-8859-1,
which makes it unreadable.  I suspect there is some setting
missing that tells CLIM to interpret the strings as UTF-8.  The
question is: if that is so, what is it?

For completeness: the application is running off an image, which
should have the locales included.  We have the application
running correctly with Japanese (EUC).

Thanks for any hints,
