Can't display Arabic text

[Abdelilah]

Hi everyone,

I am running a 10.1 machine but I can't display Arabic characters or text even after adding this :

export LC_ALL=sv_SE.UTF-8

Can you please help me with this, Thanks.

My aim is just to be able to display Arabic text, but why did you choose swedish ?
Also where do I have to set local ?

Tahnks

Sorry, I interpreted sv_SE as swedish.
Sorry there was an error. I wrote above /etc/profile but I meant /etc/login.conf.
It you write the lines in /etc/rc.conf and /etc/login.conf should be enough.

this you have to set extra in /etc/profile or in .cshrc or .bashrc
