I don't think so, but I have run some of the internationalization packages, so they might have set something behind my back. I have intervened to set some related variables, though it does not affect all environments. Basically, I'm either "C" or have LANG=en_US At least in my terminal (KDE Konsole) this is the only environment variable that seems set (nothing named LOCALE). Interestingly, I did discover GTK_RC_FILES=/etc/gtk/gtkrc:/home/ross/.gtkrc:/home/ross/.kde/share/config/gtkrc Only /home/ross/.gtkrc exists. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
