ô -> <C3><B4>

Same problem here with german umlauts(äöü). I'm using hyper after a clean Install without plugins and with zsh on macOS 10.12.2 and QWERTZ(German) keyboard layout.

seems related to locale

chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ locale
LANG="fr.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL=


chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ ls /tmp/dévelop
'/tmp/d'$'\303\251''velop'

chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ export LANG="fr_FR.UTF-8"

chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ ls /tmp/dévelop
/tmp/dévelop

But there is a strange thing (in bahs and zsh):

chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ ls -l /tmp/dévelop
-rw-r--r-- 1 chabou wheel 0 jan  7 16:55 /tmp/dévelop

chabou@DeLorean: ~
$ ls -l /tmp/
total 0
-rw-r--r-- 1 chabou wheel 0 jan  7 16:55 develop

Does not happen in Terminal.app

[YugoCode]

Is there any update? Still cannot write or display German Umlaute (ä,ö,ü,ß).

[schneyra]

Is there any update? Same for me.
