What encodings do you need?
What are your normal settings for LC_ALL and/or LC_CTYPE?
Do you have other Linux programs working properly?
If you have iconv loaded (you should have it), do you see your encodings when
you go:
iconv -l
The reason I ask is that there is another possibility: that is, to tell Squeak
to pass the received characters up with no translation and deal with it in
the image.
That would be equivalent to (assuming that MYENC is your desired native
encoding):
LC_CTYPE=MYENC SQUEAK_PATHENC=MYENC SQUEAK_TEXTENC=MYENC
SQUEAK_ENCODING=MYENC squeak
which *should* pass all the characters through untouched (as I recall; I
haven't played with this recently). You'll then have to convert them in the
image as desired.
Or you could have them converted to UTF-8 (again, you'll need to deal with
this on input so they aren't assumed to be in MacRoman when they come up from
the VM):
LC_CTYPE=MYENC SQUEAK_PATHENC=MYENC SQUEAK_TEXTENC=MYENC
SQUEAK_ENCODING=UTF-8 squeak
