Hello Wilfred.

07 Mar 24 18:55, you wrote to me:

 VA>>>> goldlib/gcui/gkbdbase.cpp

 VA>> Remind me your setup please. Do you use UTF-8 locale?

 WvV> # sudo -u fido locale

 WvV> (I also start golded with 'sudo -u fido')

 WvV> But for my golded terminal in Konsole, I have the "Default character

OK. Your terminal works in IBM850, but you run golded may try to run in UTF-8.
That won't work and it worked before just because golded was not initializing
correctly!

Question. What is your XLatLocalSet in GoldEd?

 VA>> What terminal do you use? TERM variable.

 WvV> # sudo -u fido echo $TERM
 WvV> xterm

 VA>> Do you use local console or remote/ssh?

 WvV> Both, but this test I only did in my local console.

I don't expect any difference, but it may be some.
