On Friday, I started switching my work machines over to a default locale of en_US.utf8, so diff would work correctly on UTF-8 text files containing Korean.
At home, I read my work email (typically) via mutt, which I leave running in a screen session. It turns out that this change means I need to switch basically everything at home over, as well. Well, I'll leave that for a rainy day, but for the time being, I've started up a few shells (urxvt) with LANG=en_US.utf8 instead, so things will work in the meantime.
I should have done this a long time ago, to be honest, but I guess I'm still a little bit worried about how widespread support for this is.
