NAME
lxterm - locale-sensitive wrapper for xterm
SYNOPSIS
lxterm
[
xterm-options
]
DESCRIPTION
lxterm
is a wrapper around the
xterm(1)
program that invokes
xterm,
koi8rxterm(1),
or
uxterm(1)
as appropriate, based on the user's locale setting.
All arguments to
lxterm
are passed to
xterm
without processing; the
-class,
-k8,
and
-u8
options should not be specified because they are used by
koi8rxterm
and
uxterm.
See the
xterm
manual page for more information on
xterm-options.
The
locale(1)
utility is used to determine the character set used by the current locale.
If the character set is UTF-8,
uxterm
is invoked; if the character set is KOI8-R,
koi8rxtem
is invoked; otherwise, 'plain'
xterm
is invoked.
