Hmm, I have the same problem.
Rene's name is displayed as RenA@ (close enough).

I read the above:
    My advice: First use the en_*.ISO-8859-1 of your country of origin.
Then, later, if you notice some problem you can build a new one. Anyway
for our today problem any *.ISO-8859-1, even implicit, will do.

I am in Canada running on Linux RH9
> :set ?charset
charset="utf-8"

> :set ?send_charset
send_charset="us-ascii:iso-8859-1:utf-8"

$ env |grep TERM
TERM=xterm

Charsets and locales confuse the hell out of me.
Can you suggest what would fix this.

Thanks,
Dave
