Description Anonymized Account freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-01-21 17:07:11 UTC 
Almquist shell shipped with FreeBSD echoes Unicode input with bell chars. Despite that, it prints them fine in name completion. NetBSD sh -- which I think is Almquist, too -- works without any additional setup.

login.conf:
:charset=UTF-8:lang=en_US.UTF-8:

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

Tested in xterm and rxvt-unicode.

Pinned the problem to LC_CTYPE. Setting it to "ru_RU.KOI8-R" seems to relieve the symptom for Russian characters.

SVN r276881 fixed this in 11-current (in the underlying libedit library). This commit has a MFC after field.
Comment 3 Baptiste Daroussin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-05-29 09:58:50 UTC 
Unfortunatly MFCing would be complicated, I don't know if I'll end up doing it.

Comment 5 Yuri Pankov freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-11-25 22:01:50 UTC 
Apparently, MFC didn't happen.  Closing this as fixed by base r276881 in all supported (at the moment) branches.
