Yes, you are right. Too bad I don't know which one affects it.

Thanks for your very quick reply :)

Cheers,

It's probably an env var not being set or something, xfce itself has

nothing to do with the app themselves...

 encoding there is not working properly, instead of seeing the weird (hebrewic)

 characters, there's a blank line.
