For Alt+F1 console results are:
$ read x ; echo -n ${x} | od -Ax -tx1 -
123
000000 31 32 33
000003
abc
00000 61 62 63
µ€ü (that is greek mue, the euro sign and the german ue)
000000 c2 b5 c2 a4 c3 bc
000006
All 3 runs are performed with kbd_mode -a and -u for ASCII and UTF-8 and result in the same output. So no difference between both encodings. How do they do that? Shouldn't it be different? At least for the special chars? I am puzzled.
What is up next to do?
Regards,
Peter
