[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/5] curses: wide character support

[Samuel Thibault]

Hello,

This patch series adds wide character support to the curses frontend of qemu,
thus allowing to fix a lot of input and output issues with e.g. accented letters
and semi-graphic glyphs. Since qemu can't know the encoding of the VGA font, the
user has to specify it (just like he has to specify the keyboard layout with
-k). I used option -f to make it simple for now, but I welcome any other idea :)
