Missing charsets in Xemacs [2]

Missing charsets in Xemacs

Saturday, February 10, 2007 2:04 AM - Fabrizio Salvatore

Hi,

I've installed Xshell 2.0. I log-in on a linux box and run Xemacs on it. I have the following warning:

Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

On the Xemacs Window I can see that indeed some characters are a bit funny (on the top bar where all the tabs are located (File, Edit, View, etc...).

Do I need to set something extra in Xshell to get the characters properly shown ?

Thanks,

Fab

XEmacs expects the "legacy" bitmap fonts, which are not included in many modern Unix/Linux distributions. To solve this problem, please change the LANG value to C by running the command below and run XEmacs.

In bash or ksh: export LANG=C
In csh or tcsh: setenv LANG C

If your problem persists, please provide us the following information:

1. Linux/Unix version
2. XEmacs version
3. Server locale setting

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.
