You can eradicate the scourge of UTF-8 by sticking this in
your .bashrc (assuming you use bash):
# Redhat is fooling themselves if they think UTF8 actually functions well
# all the time (or even any of the time)...
#
unset LANG
unset LC_ADDRESS
unset LC_CTYPE
unset LC_COLLATE
unset LC_IDENTIFICATION
unset LC_MEASUREMENT
unset LC_MESSAGES
unset LC_MONETARY
unset LC_NAME
unset LC_NUMERIC
unset LC_PAPER
unset LC_TELEPHONE
unset LC_TIME
unset LC_ALL
LC_ALL='POSIX'
export LC_ALL
Its in my .bashrc and things work ever so much better without
UTF-8 :-).
