|fi
|----------------------------------------

How about this wrapper script? Maybe mine is not the best, please
comment if you have any improvements.

----------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

RXVT_BIG5=/usr/X11R6/bin/rxvt-big5
RXVT_GB=/usr/X11R6/bin/rxvt-gb
DEFAULT_RXVT=$RXVT_BIG5
#DEFAULT_RXVT=$RXVT_GB
ARGS="-im xcin -pt Root"
    
if [ x$LC_ALL = xzh_TW.Big5 ]; then
    $RXVT_BIG5 $ARGS
elif [ x$LC_ALL = xzh_CN.GB2312 ]; then
    $RXVT_GB $ARGS
elif [ x$LC_CTYPE = xzh_TW.Big5 ]; then
    $RXVT_BIG5 $ARGS
elif [ x$LC_CTYPE = xzh_CN.GB2312 ]; then
    $RXVT_GB $ARGS
elif [ x$LANG = xzh_TW.Big5 ]; then
    $RXVT_BIG5 $ARGS
elif [ x$LANG = xzh_CN.GB2312 ]; then
    $RXVT_GB $ARGS
else
    $DEFAULT_RXVT $ARGS
fi
