uh. why not call XOpenIM() only after setlocale(LC_ALL, ""); first, like you have to do with ncurses? Because that would not require you to set the "C" locale at all, as it's also not the case with st. In st, we do something similar, only there the setlocale call is limited to LC_CTYPE even. I didn't look further into the issue, it's just that there locale handling seems to be done in an even messier way with XSetLocaleModifiers() calls all over the place. I guess it would be nice if we had some cleaned up x initialisation in drw.c that deals with these things without greeting its creators early. cheers! mar77i
