I'm hoping there's a way for me to generate the Euro symbol from a
console app (like vim). I would appreciate any and all suggestions,
including how to test whether it's actualy working. Thanks in advance
for all suggestions.
I'm on Fedora Core 4, with U.S. configuration all the way--but it's
UTF8! I'm hoping there's some magic I can do with perhaps the Alt key
and three digits on the numeric keypad.
Frankly, I wonder whether my screen reader will voice the word "euro"
should I succeed, but I'd settle for being able to generate the char
reliably.
Here's my locale output:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
