I wish there would also be `shortcut names', any other system i've been working with for example provides a locale named `de_DE' so you don't have to type `de_DE.ISO8859-1' all day. FreeBSD is the only (known to me) exception. (Before anybody's arguing, i don't care whether it defaults to 8859-1 or 8859-15, both are basically the same, and the EUR symbol is IMHO nonsense anyway.) -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
