Description g111 2011-05-23 13:20:54 UTC

Version:           2.6.2 (using KDE 4.6.3) 
OS:                Linux

My system uses UTF-8 as locale. In some konsole profiles I switched the encoding to western europe iso-8859-15. If I open such a konsole profile and choose "clear scrollback and reset" (via Strg+Shift+x) the konsole session is set to UTF-8. But it should stick to the encoding that is configured in the current konsole profile.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Maybe it is important to run konsole on a UTF-8 system. But this should be the default today. Configure a konsole profile to use another encoding than UTF-8. Open a konsole window using this profile. Choose "clear scrollback and reset" from the "View" menu or press Strg+Shift+x.

Actual Results:  
The encoding is set to UTF-8.

Expected Results:  
The encoding should stick to the one that you have configured in the profile.

Maybe this is related to bug #123866.

Oh, "Reproducible" is "always".

Git commit 27182ebbadb8bcf406cba74be1888125e54fe63f by Kurt Hindenburg.
Committed on 25/06/2011 at 06:26.
Pushed by hindenburg into branch 'master'.

Restore codec to profile setting or previous codec upon reset.

Previously, after typing in 'reset' or using 'Clear Scrollback & Reset',
the current codec is lost.

With this patch, typing in 'reset' will cause the codec to stay what
it was before the reset.  Using the 'Clear Scrollback & Reset' will
cause the codec to be set to the Profile setting.

This may get backported to 4.6.x
