Asked by Noslenavi

How do i modify the standard initial of the GNOME-TERMINAL ? I tried -> Set Codification of Character: UTF8 “Occidental person IBM850” and to save my preference for the standard “Occidental person IBM850” But it didn't work.

Your question is not clear. There is no option "Set Codification of Character" or "Occidental person IBM850" in GNOME Terminal. Do you use a localised (translated) version of Ubuntu? If so, which language?

By default, Ubuntu runs with a Unicode locale, en_US.UTF-8. You can force your terminal session to non-UTF-8, though this may not be a useful idea. What do you want to achieve to do without Unicode?

This is a link where you can see the screen of the Terminal.

I want to change the default configuration from "UTF8" to "Occidental IBM850"
Terminal -> Set Codification of Character -> "Occidental person IBM850"

I see.
There is a bug report on this at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-terminal/+bug/3923

In a nutshell, the functionality to remember the non-UTF-8 encoding is not available yet.
I hope this helps.

Can you help with this problem?
