Re: [tlug] Japanese file name on Linux

[Anders Jansson <nbn742d@example.com>]

On my machine (SuSE 8.0 with KDE) it works if I use kterm, but it does 
not work on konsole. Not all Linux programs support display of Japanese 
characters. In fact, to me it seems like only a few do. Xemacs and 
Mozilla are others that come to my mind.

Another option would be to use Mozilla as a file browser. In the box 
where you type the URL you could type file:///home/batara or whatever 
directory your files are stored in.

On my machine I have also installed the nicolatter and Wnn programs 
which enables me to input japanese characters, but I don't think they 
are required if you only want to see file names or view files.
