uxterm - X terminal emulator for Unicode (UTF-8) environments

       Thomas Dickey

uxterm  is  a  wrapper  around  the  xterm(1) program that invokes the latter program with the “UXTerm” X
       resource class set.  All arguments to uxterm are passed to xterm without processing; the -class  and  -u8
       options should not be specified because they are used by the wrapper.  See the xterm manual page for more
       information on xterm-options.

       The  environment's  locale  settings (see “ENVIRONMENT” below) are used to discern the locale's character
       set.  If no current locale can be determined, the locale “en_US” (the English language  as  used  in  the
       territory  of  the  United  States)  is  assumed.  The locale(1) utility is used to determine whether the
       system supports the selected locale.  If it does not, uxterm will exit  with  an  error  and  report  the
       output of locale.

       Note:uxterm  may  produce  unexpected  results  if  the current locale is set to one in which the UTF-8
       character encoding is not supported, or if fonts using the ISO 10646-1 character set are  not  available.
       In  the  Debian  system,  the  “xfonts-base”  package provides the fonts that uxterm uses by default.  To
       change the fonts uxterm uses, edit the /etc/X11/app-defaults/UXTerm file.

       A similar wrapper, koi8rxterm(1), is available for KOI8-R environments.

LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LANG
              The values of these variables are checked, in order, to determine the character set  used  by  the
              current locale.
