GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 541720
French character misdisplay
Last modified: 2008-08-23 12:32:50 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I write french ipa nasal signs (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_phonology) into the gnome-terminal, the sign is behaving weirdly - it is probably shown as two signs, but handled as one. The file with problematic signs is attached. When the file is opened in <gedit>, everything is correct, but when it is opened in gnome-terminal (I tried to use the same font) in vim or cat, the signs are shown in place of two. Steps to reproduce: 1.Launch browser, select and copy from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_phonology 2. View file in gnome-terminal 3. Actual results: The characters are misdisplayed Expected results: The characters should be displayed properly Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
