I'll try to live with it. I don't use OSX any more, so I can't check it out, but I've never needed this "escape non-ascii chars" for anything. I'd deactivate it and if you encounter problems when using some other program in Terminal, try to figure out how to adjust the configuration of that program. Stefan
