It does exactly what you said it would, but it's not really a solution
I was hoping for. My settings (in ~/.config/terminator/config) specify
the encoding to be UTF-8. I would prefer this setting to override the
default ANSI...

Thanks.

> When I launch terminator using "Run program" (Alt+F2) from XFCE, the encoding is not set at all (no radio-button is selected in the menu), and I have to set it manually. The error doesn't occur if I launch terminator from a terminal. I don't know if it's relevant, but XFCE is launched from SLiM login manager.
