Q:

Bash pressing ç or Ç emits beep instead of writing the key in PASE

I have a Portuguese keyboard
All keys are ok, but ç or Ç returns a beep sound instead of displaying it.
If I open vi then start typing, then ç or Ç show ok.
Any ideas?

A:

If you are on AIX/PASE, the UTF-8 locales are all in the format LL_CC or LL_CC.UTF-8 and not ll_CC.UTF-8 like they are on Linux/BSD/etc. You want either PT_PT or PT_PT.UTF-8 for UTF-8 in Portugal.
You can see the list of locales and encodings here: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/ssw_aix_72/com.ibm.aix.nlsgdrf/support_languages_locales.htm
