Subject: nedit 5.4 and 5.5 - locale not supported problem
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello,

I am trying to use nedit 5.5 or 5.4 with locale "pl" but I have 
encountered problem, which I cannot solve.
The nedit reports "locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged" 
and in fact I cannot enter the locale specific characters. All existing 
documents are displayed correctly in the nedit. Problem is only with 
text typing.

------------------------------------------------------------------
$ nedit -V
locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged
NEdit 5.5
Sep 30, 2004

      Built on: Win32, 386, GNU C
      Built at: Oct 16 2004, 06:48:22
    With Motif: 2.1.0 [@(#)GNU/LessTif Version 2.1 Release 0.93.94]
Running Motif: 2.1 [unknown]
        Server: The Cygwin/X Project 60802000
        Visual: 24-bit TrueColor (ID 0x22, Default)
        Locale: C
------------------------------------------------------------------

I have set variables "LANG=pl_PL" and "LC_ALL=pl_PL". With this 
configuration I can run and successfully use nedit 5.3. The version is 
unfortunately the last nedit version I can use without the locale problem.

The runtime requirements, which I have found in nedit package 
documentation are met. Currently I am using:
cygwin-1.5.17-1
expat-1.95.8-1
lesstif-0.93.94-2
libfontconfig1-2.2.2-1
libfreetype26-2.1.5-1
libXft2-2.1.6-1
xorg-x11-bin-dlls-6.8.2.0-1
zlib-1.2.2-1

I have to mention, that the nedit is the only one application with the 
locale problem in my Cygwin installation. Could somebody help me, please?

Best regards,
Irek
