Not portable. E.g. on BSD it is /usr/share/locale So between 1 and 2 there should be a step "find locale dir". This because a solution is required to be Solaris, BSD and Mac OS X compatible.
true, there is a findlocale.c file under libc that deals with this. this is a necessary step.
it'd quite nice to have a single function that queries certain variables from certain categories (e.g. LC_MONETARY, LC_TIME, LC_NUMERIC).

That can be done too, but since all constants are in 1 file, it makes more sense to process the file at once.
there is a separate file for each category, it seems. i'll try and investigate further and look for the posix docs. thanks for the comments. henry _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
