Summary: please support escape sequence for querying and setting
encoding of the current tab
Product: konsole
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
ReportedBy: iler.ml gmail com
Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Compiler: gcc 4.0.2
OS: Linux
Please support escape sequence for querying the encoding of the current tab, and escape sequence for setting encoding of the current tab.
Note that this does not affect locale of konsole, only the encoding in the current tab.
Setting and querying global locale of the konsole would be another pair of escape-sequences, unrealted to the sequences for querying and setting the encoding of a single tab.
For comparison, urxvt does not have sequences for querying and changing encoding of current tab. But that because urxvt does not have different encodings for its tab (which is an omission on part of urxvt which is advantage of konsole). Urxvt have different feature -- the sequence for querying and setting global locale of urxvt [1]. But this feature is different from requested feature because it affects all tabs.
[1] urxvt reference [2] describes sequence for querying and setting
locale of urxvt, this affects all tabs and is different from
the requested feature.
"ESC ] Ps;Pt ST"
Ps = 701 Change current locale to Pt, or,
if Pt is ?, return the current locale (Compile frills).
# change the locale and tell rxvt-unicode about it
export LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.EUC-JP; printf "\33]701;$LC_CTYPE\007"
