Hmm...

Check if your environment variables are actually set: env | grep LC

Also you might want to set LC_ALL: setenv LC_ALL fr_CA.ISO8859-1

If it still doesn't work, check if you have nls support in tcsh (should be in by default) tcsh --version

Also you might want to switch to another shell and see what happens. (Just type 'sh' and see if you can get french characters)

Thx
