Kozman Bálint (qzy) wrote : set default encoding from command line

Hi there,

i had the same problem for quite long, and i didn't even want to change my locale setting just to make gnome terminal use a different encoding. This small patch adds the "--encoding=" command line option, which makes it possible to set default encoding from command line (and possibly use an alias to avoid manual setting every time the terminal starts off). It doesn't touch any part of the terminal profile and soever. Patch works against 2.13.91-ubuntu1.

Cheers,
Balint
