Method

VtePtyset_utf8

Declaration [src]

gboolean
vte_pty_set_utf8 (
  VtePty* pty,
  gboolean utf8,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Tells the kernel whether the terminal is UTF-8 or not, in case it can make use of the info. Linux 2.6.5 or so defines IUTF8 to make the line discipline do multibyte backspace correctly.

Parameters

utf8

Type: gboolean

Whether or not the pty is in UTF-8 mode.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

TRUE on success, FALSE on failure with error filled in.
