[SOLVED] default character set in mousepad

Is there a way to set the default character set in mousepad? I want it to always save in utf-8, but it defaults to iso-8859-1.


It's a big pain when you're trying to save something that you've copied from a browser. I always have to go back and type the filename again (and change to utf-8) after getting the error message about not being able to save.


Also, is there a way to set the default locale to utf-8 instead of iso-8859?

Re: [SOLVED] default character set in mousepad

You put me on the right track; the problem was that I left the .utf8 part out of the LC_ALL= line in /etc/profile


EDIT: Oops, accidentally put a - between utf and 8. That won't work!
