Hi,

Thanks for testing. Could you please send me the value of $LANG and the
output of locale? It would also be useful if you could run the following
2 lines once within dvtm and once in uxterm.

 perl -C -e 'print pack("U",0x20ac)."\n"'
 perl -C -e 'print pack("U",0x00e9)."\n"'

The first one should print an euro sign, second your é.
