Deepak <http://research.iiit.ac.in/~masatran/> There is a program that I have not used that may be useful: localization-config The other option is to set the locale before running the program: this is one way: % LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 gedit this will temporarily run gedit with: language is english location is great britain encoding is utf8 my default is en_US.utf8, so the difference is minimal. you can then make 'custom' commands or aliases so that you can run: gb_gedit which runs 'LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8' versus gedit which runs the default locale. -- | .''`. == Debian GNU/Linux == | my web site: | | : :' : The Universal |mysite.verizon.net/kevin.mark/| | `. `' Operating System | go to counter.li.org and | | `- http://www.debian.org/ | be counted! #238656 | | my keyserver: subkeys.pgp.net | my NPO: cfsg.org | |join the new debian-community.org to help Debian! |
