WebStorm encoding problems in terminal

I'm having encoding problems, but only in the terminal of WebStorm. WebStorm's GUI and text editors are all set to UTF-8:

enter image description here enter image description here

But when I compare terminal output between OSX and WebStorm's terminal window:

From WebStorm's terminal:

$ echo $0

/bin/zsh

$ locale

LANG=
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL=

From OSX terminal:

$ echo $0

-zsh

$ locale

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

How do I correctly set the encoding for Webstorm's terminal pane?

  • Known issue, IDEA-121713. Please see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-121713#comment=27-709456 for possible workaround. Another way to go - try opening WebStorm from system terminal (open -a /Applications/WebStorm.app/)
