[erlang-questions] How to show non-ascii charaters correctly in erlang shell?

[devdoer bird]

HI:

 

We have chinese words  input /output in erlang shell,and we want to show them  correctly in terminal ,but the erlang shell only show the integer number .

Eg. If we input "中文"  in the shell,it will appear as :

9> "\326\320\316\304".
"\326\320\316\304"

 

Is there a way to solve this? Can we telnet into erlang VM ,so we can interact with the erlang VM by telent terminal not the erlang shell and the telnet terminal  can show the non-ascii word correctly.

 

Can someone help me?

Currently ssh, telnet, and shell drivers, escape anything but ascii sequences. I assumed this was for security / cleanliness issues. It is easy to go alter this, I have a patch on erlang-bugs list that did just that to allow for ^L to be typed and followed correctly in the shell.
