er, it happened on en_US.UTF-8. however that testcase doesn't even
work on ja_JP.UTF-8 locale. the help message on the bottom of screen
can show Japanese, though.

Comment 2 Akira TAGOH 2004-10-07 04:33:21 UTC
actually lynx doesn't work for CJK. for another testcase,

Korean testcase:
LANG=ko_KR.UTF-8 lynx http://kr.yahoo.com/

Result:
going to download the page.

Simplified Chinese testcase:
LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 lynx http://cn.yahoo.com/

Result:
displaying broken strings

Traditional Chinese testcase:
LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8 lynx http://tw.yahoo.com/

Result:
displaying broken strings

Comment 3 Thomas E. Dickey 2004-10-15 19:18:03 UTC
Setting LANG doesn't help much - lynx doesn't translate
the page content (which is not UTF-8).  This is a known
issue, which I am working on.
