Make sure that you either give the full pathname to "truss" or have "p" in your PATH environment.

Truss is the name of the original program written by Roger Faulkner at AT&T around 1984. In 1987, SunOS-4.0 came out with a clone called trace. Around 1989, a person from the Sun User group wrote a trace clone called strace for SunOS-4 in order to find out how it works. It should be easy to find this information if you do not have the original program from Roger Faulkner. Truss is however available on most operating systems, so it seems to be the best to use that original command name.

Since revision schilytools 2021-09-01, all schilytools have been changed. If you install a translation file as mentioned in AN-2021-09-01, the problem is gone. This is currently already available in the FreeBSD binaries from the schilytoos.

Well, what you did is not a fix, since it only hides the problem for you instead of making the problem disappear for everyone. My solution works for everyone....

Hi, this is a rendering problem in your work environment. It seems that you are using an UTF-8 based locale and even though the low 256 characters from ISO-8859-1 and UNICODE are identical. you see rubbish. The next version of the schilytools come with a workaround. If you install a translation file, gettext() will call iconv() to convert the ’ö’ to what it is in your local setup. The announcement file for the next schilytools release will explain how to set up a translation file.
