            Bug ID: 323940
           Summary: Konsole not using 8bit input
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: konsole
           Version: 2.10.5
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
               URL: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/VimTip738
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: keyboard
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: rrockers at gmail.com

With the default setup, konsole doesn't seem to send 8 bit character (instead
using 7 bit) to the terminal when typing.  This causes problems in programs
like Vim when using alt+p or M-Y combinations.  Currently xterm, gterm, and
several others now support this by default.

Steps to Reproduce:

is wrong
