The official history credits later fixes and improvements from several people, especially Tomohiro Kubota's CJK encoding extensions, and notes that the program uses the MIT-X11 license like xterm. Thomas E. Dickey adopted luit maintenance in 2006 after a period without a maintainer, motivated by keeping it useful with xterm. The Invisible Island history emphasizes two long-running maintenance themes: correcting distribution and path changes made in Xorg-era packaging, and reducing dependence on the lightly maintained font-encoding library by implementing efficient iconv-based conversion. As of the 2.0 line, luit deprecated the font-encoding library path while preserving support for `.enc` files and broader encoding selection. The official page documents the practical consequences for packagers: encoding data is often packaged separately, dependencies are sometimes incomplete, and luit is not itself an X application even though it is most useful with xterm. ### 采用历史 luit began inside the XFree86 and Xorg terminal ecosystem and became a small but widely packaged Unix utility. The maintainer's page lists portability across SVR4 Unix, AIX, Tru64, BSD systems, macOS, and Linux, and the package appears in common Unix package sets such as Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, Arch, and openSUSE. Its adoption is mostly invisible: users encounter it through xterm or legacy-locale workflows rather than as a standalone application. That invisibility is part of its packaging importance, because terminal emulators and old applications still need reliable conversion behavior when UTF-8 terminals meet non-UTF-8 programs. ### 使用方式 The manpage describes luit as a filter run between an arbitrary application and a UTF-8 terminal emulator. It is mainly used with xterm, but the official page stresses that luit itself is not an X application. Power users and packagers use options such as `-list-fontenc` and `-encoding` to inspect and choose encoding tables, especially when diagnosing missing CJK or legacy encoding data. ### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心 luit matters to package nerds because it is a small compatibility utility with a long tail of platform-specific behavior. It exposes classic distribution issues: upstream fork history, XFree86/Xorg lineage, font-encoding data split into separate packages, iconv availability, and packagers accidentally adding unnecessary X library dependencies. ### 时间线 - 2001-2002: Written by Juliusz Chroboczek for XFree86. - 2006: Thomas E. Dickey adopts maintenance to keep luit working with xterm. - 2010: Xorg incorporates Dickey's luit work into its repository. - 2013: luit 2.0 release line appears in the maintainer history. - 2018-2022: Invisible Island page documents ongoing maintenance and portability notes. ### Related projects - xterm is the primary terminal emulator associated with luit usage. - XFree86 and Xorg are the historical source trees where luit circulated. - iconv and font-encoding provide the conversion mechanisms and data paths discussed by the maintainer. ### 来源 - - - - ## 安全说明 narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger 风险:** 绿色 / 低 - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## 源数据库详情 - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** luit - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## 其他软件包管理器记录 - Debian apt - luit - 2.0.20240910-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: luit from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | locale and ISO 2022 support for Unicode terminals | https://invisible-island.net/luit/ - Nix - luit: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/lu/luit/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - dnf - luit - 2.0.20250912-8.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: luit from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/210a2053c8e007daf9ae39c2a21daaed9b2ddd07d63ecffa597050361e73650c-primary.xml.zst | Locale and ISO 2022 support for Unicode terminals | https://invisible-island.net/luit/ - pacman - luit - 20250912-1: normalized package name match | Arch Linux sync databases: luit from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | Filter that can be run between an arbitrary application and a UTF-8 terminal emulator | https://invisible-island.net/luit/luit.html - zypper - luit - 20230201-1.9: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: luit from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Locale and ISO 2022 support for Unicode terminals | http://invisible-island.net/luit/ - MacPorts - luit: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: x11/luit/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## 相关链接 - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Game and emulation packages](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/game-emulation-tools/) - Matched game or emulation metadata. - [Homebrew utility packages](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew-utility-packages/) - Matched Homebrew package provider. - [pv](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/pv/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [less](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/less/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [screen](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/screen/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [ranger](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/ranger/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [lesspipe](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/lesspipe/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [picocom](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/picocom/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [ov](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/ov/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [dtach](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/dtach/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, terminal. - [vttest](https://pkg.so/zh-hans/brew/vttest/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
