My locales seem to be screwed up: nedit NEdit: Locale not supported by C library. NEdit: Using C locale instead. I reran local-gen: #locale-gen Generating locales... en_CA.ISO-8859-1... done en_IE.ISO-8859-1... done en_NZ.ISO-8859-1... done en_US.ISO-8859-1... done fr_CA.ISO-8859-1... done but it didn't help. Suggestions would be welcome... thanks Richard
