If I do an 'export LC_ALL=C' then term=linux and term=screen appear to

What about TERM=screen ?
Where should I put the 'export LC_ALL=C' command so it is always done for
each login and for each user? The /etc/bash.bashrc file?
/etc/profile is the usual place, but are you sure you want to do that?
That would have no effect here because I clobber whatever the system
gives me in my own startup scripts.
btw, defining LC_ALL=C is heavy-handed overkill. Better would be
LANG. I also set LC_COLLATE=C. Here's what I end up with:
(0) heretic /home/keeling_ locale
LANG=en_US.iso885915
LC_CTYPE="en_US.iso885915"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.iso885915"
LC_TIME="en_US.iso885915"
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_MONETARY="en_US.iso885915"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.iso885915"
LC_PAPER="en_US.iso885915"
LC_NAME="en_US.iso885915"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.iso885915"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.iso885915"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.iso885915"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.iso885915"
LC_ALL=
LC_ALL isn't even set!
