SYNOPSIS

Luit is a filter that can be run between an arbitrary application and a UTF-8 terminal emulator. It will convert application output from the locale's encoding into UTF-8, and convert terminal input from UTF-8 into the locale's encoding. It is mainly used to support xterm.

HISTORY

Luit was written by Juliusz Chroboczek for the XFree86 Project, with improvements and fixes by several people. There has been no maintainer for some time; I have adopted it to ensure that it continues to support xterm (details are listed in the luit.log.html file within the source).
