On Debian, it is possible to check /etc/locale.gen. That's not the right answer; I'm pretty sure the (GNU) C library supports function calls to inquire as to whether a given locale is supported. If some of those function calls are available in a simple shell utility, I'd be happy to patch the uxterm shell script accordingly. I might even be able to write it portably enough that it will be accepted upstream by Mr. Dickey. -- G. Branden Robinson | Psychology is really biology.
