Check your locale settings, esp. $LANG, and $LC_ALL. In my case : $ locale LANG=en LC_CTYPE="en_US" LC_NUMERIC="en_US" LC_TIME="en_US" LC_COLLATE="en_US" LC_MONETARY="en_US" LC_MESSAGES="en_US" LC_PAPER="en_US" LC_NAME="en_US" LC_ADDRESS="en_US" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US" LC_ALL=en_US This question came up on the list recently - check the archives. pv. -- Prahlad Vaidyanathan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> What, me worry ? http://www.symonds.net/~prahladv/ Don't Panic ! --
