Your case is actually simpler than I thought. You should have zero issues       with pseudo-graphics.              Try to set LANG to cs_CZ.ISO8859-2 and that will solve your issue! No need to       set it for the whole system. Just for golded session.              $ LANG=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2 luit -encoding 'ISO-8859-2' ./gedlnx -f              Your problem is that luit converts symbols from 8859-2 to UTF, but ncurses       tries to work in UTF-8 mode because you have LANG=cs_CZ.utf8.              In my case I have separate session in Putty with KOI8-R. And run golded like       this:              LANG=ru_RU.koi8r gedlnx -C |
