Description Dawid Gajownik 2006-10-14 08:01:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
ekg is not UTF-8 aware

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ekg-1.7-0.3.rc2.fc5

Steps to Reproduce:
1° export LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8
2° run ekg
3° type for instance łążźćó
  
Actual results:
IIRC ekg developers don't want to add UTF-8 support. As a workaround you can
create wrapper which would run ekg via luit:

LANG=pl_PL luit ekg

or:

luit -encoding 'ISO 8859-2' ekg
