No-no!

I tried for example the following:

* created some utf-8 test file with gvim
* started unicode xterm

  like uxterm -fn '-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-*-*-17-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1'

* and tried to view the result

  cat test-utf8

but I sow squares only :(

So may be there is something wrong with that terminals?

When I used gnome-terminal and selected in menu

Terminal -> Use coding -> UTF-8

and all is ok!

So please describe how do you check the coding?
