dtterm and Terminals Capable of Input and Output of UTF-8 Characters

Unlike in previous releases of the Solaris operating environment, the dtterm(1) Terminal and any other terminals that support input and output of the UTF-8 codeset do not need to have any additional STREAMS modules in their stream. ldterm(7M) module is now codeset independent and supports Unicode/UTF-8 as well.

To set up the proper terminal environment for the Unicode locales, use the stty(1) utility. To query the current settings use the -a option of the stty(1) utility, as shown below:

system% /bin/stty -a

Because /usr/ucb/stty is not internationalized, use /bin/stty instead.
