Re: How to do filename completion with umlauts?

Hi Andrey and Oliver,

thanks for your help, but it still doesn't work. :-(

> May it depend on locale settings? Do you have locale set up?
Yes.  I didn't have all the LC_* set up, just LC_ALL but even after copying
your setup it doesn't work.

Here Debian Package zsh 4.0.4-33

Oops!

Unfortunately this doesn't work either. :-(

Now when I type TAB after an umlaut _nothing_ happens, it just beeps.
If I press TAB after a "normal" character it completes, but doesn't change
the case of umlauts either.  Hm, what else could be wrong?

Thanks,
 Andy.
