       Something I have never found an answer to by http search: why does ' (’) show up as " ~@~Y" in lynx? Locale on my machine is en_us.UTF-8, same with the cygwin install I am using to ssh in right now from work.

       @jynxDoes Lynx even understand unicode at its age?

       @noogles This is a good question...

       @noogles w3m and elinks don't choke as bad, but both display ’ as _

       @jynx @noogles Funnily, I ran into similar problems with lynx. It can be coerced to use UTF-8 all the time, though! The catch is when you set it in the in-program settings, it reverts as soon as you exit. You need to put it in ~/.lynx.cfg. Here's what I have:    CHARACTER_SET:utf-8    ASSUME_CHARSET:utf-8I also have these in ~/.lynxrc:    character_set=UNICODE (UTF-8)    preferred_charset=UTF-8    preferred_language=enThat should default lynx to use UTF-8 in English. lynxrc in particular comes with comments to outline the options. It's a bit weird, but once I set the above, Unicode appeared to work in all documents that were encoded correctly.

       @noogles @zlg I went back to using zsh recently, after a foray into using fish. This morning I installed oh-my-zsh, and all my UTF-8 woes are fixed. Apparently I can't into locales...

       @jynxThat's interesting - sounds as though zfs handles locales/unicode well by default. I recall having to run locale-gen on stock Debian-ish distros with bash before, to overcome locale and unicode issues.@zlg
