The most funny thing is that the 8859/5 locale in HP-UX is broken. It defines wrong character order for collation like AaBbVvGg... (using transliteration of russian letters) instead of ABVG...abvg..., so if you do echo bvBV | tr [a-g] [A-G] you get "BVab". I've made definitions for CP866 and KOI-8 locales from their 8859/5 locale and that was a real surprise to discover that bug. You can try it also on Sun :-) -SB To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
