So, any help would be appreciated. Dear David C. Maple, I include here my own working "experimental" examples: I run four locales, each as a different user. These seem to behave "satisfactorily"; however, I shall have to refine some more details. You migh want to read perllocale(1) and setlocale(3) to begin with. Enjoy ! # Us English locale configuration, in my ~/.tcshrc setenv LC_ALL en_US.ISO_8859-1 setenv LC_CTYPE en_US.ISO_8859-1 setenv LANG en_US.ISO_8859-1 setenv MM_CHARSET ISO-8859-1 ################################ # French locale configuration in another user's ~/.tcshrc setenv LC_ALL fr_FR.ISO_8859-1 setenv LC_CTYPE fr_FR.ISO_8859-1 setenv LANG fr_FR.ISO_8859-1 setenv MM_CHARSET ISO-8859-1 ################################ # German locale configuration in another user's ~/.tcshrc setenv LC_ALL de_DE.ISO_8859-1 setenv LC_CTYPE de_DE.ISO_8859-1 setenv LANG de_DE.ISO_8859-1 setenv MM_CHARSET ISO-8859-1 # there's some stuff in the handbook related to the German locale. ################################ # Italian locale configuration in ~/.bash_profile, # just for a change ;-) LC_ALL=it_IT.ISO_8859-1; export LC_ALL LC_CTYPE=it_IT.ISO_8859-1; export LC_CTYPE LANG=it_IT.ISO_8859-1; export LANG MM_CHARSET=ISO-8859-1; export MM_CHARSET ################################ With these settings, and the corresponding settings in KDE, I have found no locale errors -- so far.
