Hi, I updated a mc port to the last one, version 4.7.0pre4 and wanted to run mc, but mc display a warning message that the selected display charset or source codeset does not match one set via locale. I have never seen this message since I am a user of mc. Propably it is something new in this new version. The version 4.6.2 does not show you this message durring starting application. I wanted to set my locale, but I found out that command setlocale is missing on FreeBSD 7.2. Files in directory /etc: login.conf, login.conf.db, csh.login and profile are set as HANDBOOK recommends for language localization. My shells are bash, tcsh or zsh, csh for root user. The results are the same. bash: [user@server ~]$ LC_ALL=ISO-8859-2; export LC_ALL -bash: varování: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (ISO-8859-2): No such file or directory zsh: server% setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2 zsh: command not found: setlocale tcsh: > setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2 setlocale: Command not found. root csh: server# setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2 setlocale: Command not found. So my simple question is why is setlocale command missing in FreeBSD 7.2 ? And if user could not use locale and setlocale commands like on Linux, how can I solve my problem with new version of MC ? The mc message: Confirmation Chosen display charset (Settings->Display bits) or source codeset (in mcedit ctrl-t) does not match one set via locale. Set correct codeset manually or press <<Fix it>> to set locale default. Or set 'don' task again' and press <<Skip>> [ ] don't ask again [< Fix it >] [ Skip ] BTW in mc there is not any settings with display bits, there is only options menu with display bits. Wrong help dialogs ? Thank you Daniel
