2009/11/28 lemkemch: > But how do I get back a pure C locale? If by that you mean an ASCII locale: C.ASCII. (Btw, that's essentially the same as C.ISO-8859-1, i.e. it's 8-bit not 7-bit). >=C2=A0I also > want ls -l to output the old standard date format. =C2=A0So > setenv LANG C.what? =C2=A0C.ISO-8859-15 is kind of nice (the accented > chars display fine) but ls then shows the iso-type date format. The date format is controlled by the LC_TIME locale category. Hence you could get both the Euro charset and the traditional date format with this: LANG=3DC.ISO-8859-15 LC_TIME=3DC Regarding the LANG setting, I'd recommend setting it to the language you prefer, e.g. de_DE.ISO-8859-15 or en_GB.ISO-8859-15, because the C.* locales are unlikely to be recognised when connecting to other systems.
