<p>After reading <a href="https://lwn.net/Articles/741176/" rel="nofollow">https://lwn.net/Articles/741176/</a> I tried to add:</p>
<pre><code>export LC_TYPE=C.UTF-8
</code></pre>
<p>in <code>/Applications/Geany.app/Contents/MacOS/geany</code>, but that does not work.</p>
<p>An easier (at least for me) way to check I can use non-ASCII characters is to try to enter a "é" letter in the Geany terminal window:</p>
<ul>
<li>Without my patch I get a beep and no letter displayed</li>
<li>With my patch I get the expected "é"</li>
</ul>
