Print Japaneese character on Linux terminal & debugging problem

Hi everyone,

Question1 : I want to print a japaneese character on linux console. I did following changes before printing on linux console (Putty 0.60).
1. Change console setting to “utf-8” translation.
2. Check locales which are available in console using “locale –a “command.
3. set the appropriate locale using export LC_ALL=”respective locale” (here in this case I have set it to “ja_JP.utf8”).
I am transferring japaneese character from word document using copy and printing it on console using right click. But on console I am getting [] [] (some boxes)
Question2: I want to debug japaneese character using gdb. How can I check japaneese characters for a wide char pointer?
Ex: char *ch=”hi”; Using gdb
(gdb) print ch (or) display ch Will print “hi”
Like this how can I print wide char characters on gdb. Consider I have a input wchar_t *wch=L” 学の”; (If i am able to check wide characters it will help me for debugging)
