Hi,
I use cmus to play mp3 files in console. But the problem is that ID3 tags are in Unicode UTF8. Specifically I use Malayalam. I can see only some block characters in the screen . How do I fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Derick.

Have you read this already ?
http://linux.com/learn/docs/ldp/559-Indic-Fonts-HOWTO.

That article says:
Devanagari characters do not display properly in a Linux console.However, NCST has developed ncst-term (a terminal emulator program in X Window System) which has support for converting keystrokes to UTF-8 before sending them to the application running in the ncst-term, and for displaying Unicode characters that the application outputs as UTF-8 byte sequence.
So no luck trying to display things in vc/tty. And the packages are too old also.
I will give mpd a try
