Hi!
When I change into a directory which contains UTF-8-characters, the
prompt looks garbled:
windy@zerus:~$ echo $LANG
de_DE.UTF-8
windy@zerus:~$ mkdir Ärzte
windy@zerus:~$ ls Ärzte -d
Ärzte
windy@zerus:~$ cd Ärzte
windy@zerus:~/\M-C\M-^Drzte$
I'm using the CVS-code of 2005/10/04 on Debian Sarge. Is this a bug of
zsh or do I have to change the prompt?
Regards
Stephan

For now use "setopt printeightbit" but it is obviously a bug - zsh should not
rely on it in multibyte environment.

It doesn't any more as long as the (wide) character is printable, and if
--enable-multibyte is in effect it should show unprintable wide characters
in \u or \U format rather than \M format. I rather suspect multibyte
support isn't enabled.

Aha --- it's the %~ that's still using the old nicezputs(). It works fine
if you include the same characters literally in the prompt. This shouldn't
be too hard to fix.

This workaround fixes my problem.
Thanks
