Newlib (cygwin's underlying C library) does not really support locales; it is hard-wired to the "C"/"POSIX" locale. So even if there were a locale tool, it would be pretty boring. But since POSIX requires locale(1) and localedef(1) as utilities, it would be nice if somebody contributed them. http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#PTC Gettext and libintl help in some regards, such as LC_MESSAGES, although I can't say that I have any experience with using that part of i18n (unfortunately, since English is my native language, I am already all too comfortable with the "C" locale). - -- Life is short - so eat dessert first!
