I can't seem to get accented characters in zsh, I tried:
export LC_CTYPE=iso_8859_1
export LANG=iso_8859_1
stty cs8 -istrip
etc...
I looked everywhere in zsh-doc, but I can't find any builtin.
Thanks for any help.

Here, LANG mustn't be defined.

Try:
stty -parenb -istrip cs8
Look also at your terminal settings. For instance, if you use xterm,
eightBitOutput must be true.

I don't think it comes from zsh. Try another shell (e.g. sh), and
try "cat". Do you get 8-bit chars in those cases?

OK, I did that.

Did that too..

That's defined in my .Xresources

If I 'chsh' to bash, 8 bit characters work fine even without doing any
of the above... I'm a bit lost on that one. Now I remember that at some
point they worked when I had compiled and installed zsh myself, and they
stoped working since I switched to the Debian zsh package.
Anyway thanks a lot for your help, I'll keep trying but really don't
understand what's going on, especially with bash working and zsh not.
Merci.

Following up to myself: my problem was I had defined 'bindkey -me' in my
.zshrc. With 'bindkey -e' everything is fine.
