[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#509886: Please add charset specification for current terminal

[Alexander Gerasiov]

Package: xfce4-terminal
Version: 0.2.8-5
Severity: wishlist

Hi there.

I switched to xfce from gnome and found one usefull feature missing here:
I'm working with several charset encodings: somewhere utf-8, somewhere old
koi8-r and somewhere cp1251. In gnome-terminal, roxterm and konsole (from kde4)
I can specify encoding for current terminal, but xfce4-terminal miss this
feature.

Best regards, xfce looks really nice (and support for gnomish panel applets is
a very good idea).
