Does Famitracker have Chinese character support? I don't know if it's just a problem with Wine or Famitracker, but Chinese characters just show up as question marks when a text field is left after they're typed.

If your Linux OS is set to support East Asian characters, can you verify that everything in FamiTracker's window is printed as either question marks/squares, or printed properly?

This would be a sure sight that you just have to set your OS to support East Asian characters.

I don't think it's an OS problem. FamiTracker uses single-byte ASCII characters to store most of its strings, so unicode/extended characters just aren't supported.

Famitracker uses ASCII only. Even if unicode was supported, the song information text would still only support ASCII because that is stored in exported NSFs.

You'll have to change the system locale setting to chinese, I don't know how that works in wine though.
