Hi, I'm still trying to solve the problem, after browsing the forum I have tried this: LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF.8 wine program.exe Then, when I write a character with an accent, that I see is "´e" instead of "é" , that would be the correct thing. The same behavior with the genuine notepad: LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF.8 wine notepad.exe Is strange for me to think that nobody has had this same problem before. Any indication will be very well appreciated.
