[Nano-devel] Re: bug report: strange behaviour in large console windows

[Tom Weber]

I forgot to mention a very important detail. I ran nano through luit, the 
encoding wrapper. I had this alias:
alias e='LANG="" luit -encoding "ISO 8859-1" nano'
Running nano without luit doesn't produce this bug. But what am I to do, I 
want to edit swedish text in nano.
