Given that getlocale() is not to be used, what's the best way to get the locale later in the app? I need that two-letter code that's hidden in a typical locale like en_ZA.utf8 -- I want that 'en' part.
BTW - things are hanging-together much better now, thanks to your info. I have it running in locale 'C' as well as my other test locales. What a relief! \d -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
