我从来没有能够让我的终端显示unicode符号。例如，在我拥有现在的操作系统之前，我将ctrl + a映射到vim中的希腊mu，并且它可以在其他计算机上运行，但不能在当前的xterm上运行。这是我的相关部分.vimrc：
set encoding=utf-8
"map control-a to mu
imap <C-a> <C-k>m*
另外，我需要在python中输出sympy方程，这在其他计算机上有效，但在我当前的xterm上不可用。代替这个：
$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Mar 14 2014, 11:57:14)
[GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sympy
>>> x = sympy.symbols('x')
>>> sympy.init_printing()
>>> (sympy.sqrt(x**3/(x+1)), 1)
⎛ _______ ⎞
⎜ ╱ 3 ⎟
⎜ ╱ x ⎟
⎜ ╱ ───── , 1⎟
⎝╲╱ x + 1 ⎠
我得到这个：
>>> (sympy.sqrt(x**3/(x+1)), 1)
n ------- n
n n 3 n
n n x n
n n ───── , 1n
nnnn x + 1 n
实际上，它似乎仅在n无法显示unicode字符时才使用该字符。
我正在从~/.xinitrc文件运行xterm，并在中为终端设置了一些字体和颜色~/.Xresources。这是我能想到的所有相关信息：

我也跑了，$ fc-list但输出太大，无法粘贴到此问题中。所以我把它放在这里
它在我的浏览器中显示的内容：

我在终端中看到的内容：
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSansBold.ttf: FreeSans:style=Bold,nnnnnnnnn,negreta,tunné,fed,Fett,nnnnnn,Negrita,Lihavoitu,Gras,Félkövér,Grassetto,Vet,Halvfet,Pogrubiony,Negrito,gros,nnnnnnnnnn,Fet,Kalın,huruf tebal,nnnnnn,Krepko,treknraksts,pusjuodis,nậm,Lodia,nnn
有趣的是，我的终端上确实出现了一些“特殊”字符，但是大多数字符被代替n。您可以在上一个输出中看到получерен无法显示任何内容，但是可以显示的最后一个字符tučné（而中间č则不能显示-被代替n）
根据@apaul的评论，看来xterm加载的字体不正确。尝试设置一个虚拟类，以免加载xterm资源：
$ xterm -class Foo -name foo -u8 -fa "DejaVu Sans Mono:style=Book"
$ # the following commands are all executed in the resulting terminal:
$ echo -e "\xE2\x98\xA0"
☠
$ # the above skull actually shows up now. and so does the unicode
$ # output from sympy and also vi can display greek symbols now :)
剩下的一切就是弄清楚为什么xterm无法使用来设置字体~/.Xresoureces，并使其正常工作。似乎必须覆盖字体设置？
实际上我只是想尝试使用Terminus字体尝试上述命令，看来这是问题所在：
$ xterm -class Foo -name foo -u8 -fa "Terminus"
$ # the following commands are all executed in the resulting terminal:
$ echo -e "\xE2\x98\xA0"
n
也许总站未正确安装？或正被映射到其他东西。我怎么能找到答案？

xterm不支持完整的UTF-8（AFAIK），请尝试运行uxterm，但我建议您尝试使用其他终端，例如urxvt，白蚁或st

@mulllhausen我确认它应该可以工作。我使用xterm已有多年，并且可以显示很多内容，具体取决于字体。总站能够显示您的示例。我正在使用

-fa "DejaVu Sans Mono:size=11:antialias=true"但是，我不理解您的-js和-fullscreen选项。我的xterm版本不了解它们。我的xterm -version输出X.Org 6.8.99.903(253)。
@mulllhausen好吧，由于复制粘贴有效，这意味着xterm可以处理unicode。可能是字体问题。您确定xterm正在使用“ DejaVu Sans Mono”吗？您可以检查它是否在xterm中运行，

@mulllhausen Thx。如您所见，由于某些原因，xterm不会加载正确的字体。它加载了一个iso-8859-1（包含“é”，这就是为什么您可以看到它）。老实说，我不知道为什么。你会跑步
