NAME
koi8rxterm - X terminal emulator for KOI8-R environments
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/koi8rxterm [ xterm-options ]
DESCRIPTION
koi8rxterm is a wrapper around the xterm(1) program that
invokes the latter program with the `KOI8RXTerm' X resource
class set. All arguments to koi8rxterm are passed to xterm
without processing; the -class and -k8 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 cur-
rent locale can be determined, the locale `ru_RU.KOI8-R'
(the Russian language as used in the territory of Russia,
with the KOI8-R character set) is assumed. The locale(1)
utility is used to determine whether the system supports the
selected locale. If it does not, koi8rxterm will exit with
an error and report the output of locale.
Note: koi8rxterm may produce unexpected results if the cur-
rent locale is set to one in which the KOI8-R character
encoding is not supported, or if fonts using that encoding
are not available. In the Debian system, the `xfonts-cyril-
lic' package provides the fonts that koi8rxterm uses by
default. To change the fonts koi8rxterm uses, edit the
/usr/share/X11/app-defaults/KOI8RXTerm file.
A similar wrapper, uxterm(1), is available for Unicode UTF-8
environments.
ENVIRONMENT
LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LANG
The values of these variables are checked, in order, to
determine the character set used by the current locale.
AUTHOR
koi8rxterm was written by Branden Robinson and is very heav-
ily based on uxterm, by Thomas Dickey. The assistance of
Jurij Smakov was invaluable in sanity-checking its opera-
tion.
