I was only referring to using the single koi8 for the console fonts and keyboard mappings. As far a locale goes, I'd expect bielorussians to create their own locale, so that the koi8-u users don't count the bielorussian-only characters as text, etc. But the screen fonts and, possibly, keyboards should be shared, IMHO. -mi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
