Micro: Character set not supported

[gowthamsadasivam]

I just downloaded the pre-built binary for 64-bit Linux on my Ubuntu 14.04. Ran the "install.sh" and copied the ./bin/micro binary to my path location. When I tried to run the binary it always exits out with an error message "Character set not supported" as shown in the screenshot below.

Is there any settings that I should do before running micro?

I changed the locale to utf8 and it's now working!!

Thanks lot @danixland . Worked for me too. Just setup'd

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8

in the ~/.zshrc and now I can able to open and edit files :+1:

A bunch more character sets should be supported now with this commit aa129c1ddf15b4d1314572330a24f3e01118aae9.

As far as I can see the code, character set is not supported.

あ should be double width in the terminal but micro treat this as single width.
