Yes, that does the trick nicely, thanks. I had trouble understanding the way the ifs and the ifdefs were interleaved, but I got there in the end.

With this, and without Werner's tweak, cd = iconv_open (full_newset, "utf-8"); (where full_newset="iso88591" as returned by nl_langinfo via newset) ... no longer seems to throw an error. Since Alain's fix does not involve changing your source, I will go with that one, thanks to both of you. > By the way: LANG alone suffices to set a value for all locale > categories. Do not use LC_ALL, unless you have a Good Reason. Yes, I do have a Good Reason, but thanks for mentioning it anyway. -- Mike. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
