I understand your point and this is quite clear to me. But my point is:
Normally the program (here: tcsh) does not get any data before the user hits
the return key. An entered line is completely buffered by the terminal, so
the program hasn't to deal e.g. with Backspace if the user corrects
characters and so on. The characters are send not till the user completes
the line with the return key.
Hu? Who told you that nonsense? It's not true at all :-)
And there UTF-8 should work _every_ time
(regardless of the running program in Terminal), shouldn't it? And that is
what I don't understand: In some programs this works and in some other it
does not. I want to know why!
In which programs does it work, then? It "works" in cat, but I
already explained why that is so. In which other programms does it
"work" ?
Cheers,
Max
