I believe many developers have spent too much unnecessary time dealing with wchar.h. Is there a timeline yet? BTW, are there any plans bringing language information into the system? ie. nl_langinfo.h & nl_types.h, which are defined in the Single Unix Spec 2. From what I saw in the Citrus cvs, it seems that they have done the NetBSD part, but neither FreeBSD nor OpenBSD. > 4. ports//auto-l10n Auto-localization port > It will be like ports/x11/gnome and depend on all necessary > ports.
