I didn't think X11 controls the interpretation that unix applications
place on filenames, unless it's affected by the Xsetlocale macro?
I did not see this question on the list, only keymap problem.
I do not report on this problem before because 0.1 was not
"international". Now 0.2 is said to be OK, so it's time to see if other
are in the same situation.
Perhaps you're confusing separate issues - keyboard layout is just one
part of internationalization
Side note on 0.2 keymapping : the new version correctly follow the
keymap choosen in the menubar, but at the cost of loosing any
modification you have made to your Keymapping.
that's why there's an option to disable it :-)
I.E. the eurosign on the french keyboard does not display correclty in
X11 0.2. xmodmap give, for the key :
thanks for reporting this - it was a bug in the unicode->keysym
translation table
