Hi,

I've got troubles with my keyboard (french) and the terminal window of PhpEd (for SSH).

For example, if I want to insert a pipe "|", I have to press "ALT GR + 6" but instead I've got on the screen a small square and then my pipe. Same thing, if I want to insert "[" (ALT GR +5 ) or "]" (ALT GR + °).

I've included a screenshot to show you the problem for the pipe :



What can I do, besides, deleting the unwanted characters by hand ?

Is there somewhere a possiblity to specifiy another shell client (i.e. I don't have these problems using SecureShell client) ?

Thanks in advance,

What locale did you set on the remove host? (just run locale command to see it).
I'm not 100% sure, but en_US.ISO8859-1 would work for all west-europe charsets.

actually, the remote host locale is set to the following :

LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="fr_FR.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=


Do I have to change it in order to use the console in PhpED ? Is there any other workaround ?

I've got a similar problem. Using phpED terminal I'm unable to use those language specific characters like "ç" "ã", etc.

I think there's nothing to do with the locale since if I use other program like PuTTY there's no such problem, and I can type any character.

I didn't find any place to set something that could affect the keyboard behaviour in terminal.

to medifirst:
Currently PhpED 4.6 terminal does not support UTF8 input, please try to set fr_FR.ISO8859-1

I changed the LANG variable in the .bash_profile file to fr_FR.ISO8859-1 (and I checked that "locale" returned all the LC_* variable values as fr_FR.ISO8859-1), but the problem is still there.

Any other solution to propose ?

Did you check UTF-8 in the account settings for the terminal?


When it is checked, non-ascii symbols are passed to the far end as UTF8 characters, while when it is not checked they are passed according to active ANSI code page supported by OS.

Sorry for the delay answering to your post, I must have missed it.

I tried to check and uncheck UTF-8 support but it doesn't change anything (I tried for the locale server : fr_FR.UTF-8 and fr_FR.ISO8859-1).

Hello,

I have the same problem. But it has worked. I think it was with the version 4.6.1, my trial version...

No sorry, it does'nt work in this version, I just tried In fact, it is probably an update made on my linux server...

This problems seems not resolved in the version 5 (trial).
It's not working, i don't think the pb come from server, because with putty it's ok.
But i will not buy phped for this bug.

You're right, the problems are still there in the latest version (5025)...

fr_FR.ISO8859-1 and all the other national encodings are NOT supported. If you need them please use UTF-8 for your terminal sessions.
Let know if you get any problems with this encoding.
