If he wrote the manual page with a local locale(7). I think we are not to 'blame' for this. However, it might be interesting to poke the iconv maintainer(s). We have a locale(1)... Perhaps this is more a ports issue in the end.. cheers, Remko -- Kind regards, Remko Lodder ** remko@elvandar.org FreeBSD ** remko@FreeBSD.org /* Quis custodiet ipsos custodes */
