Hi,
I updated a mc port to the last one, version 4.7.0pre4 and wanted to run mc, but mc display a warning message that the selected display charset or source codeset does not match one set via locale. I have never seen this message since I am a user of mc. Propably it is something new in this new version. The version 4.6.2 does not show you this message durring starting application. I wanted to set my locale, but I found out that command setlocale is missing on FreeBSD 7.2. Files in directory /etc: login.conf, login.conf.db, csh.login and profile are set as HANDBOOK recommends for language localization. My shells are bash, tcsh or zsh, csh for root user. The results are the same. bash:
[u...@server ~]$ LC_ALL=ISO-8859-2; export LC_ALL
-bash: varování: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (ISO-8859-2): No such 
file or directory
zsh:
server% setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2
zsh: command not found: setlocale

tcsh:
setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2
setlocale: Command not found.

root csh:
server# setlocale LC_ALL ISO-8859-2
setlocale: Command not found.

So my simple question is why is setlocale command missing in FreeBSD 7.2 ? And 
if user could not use locale and setlocale commands like on Linux, how can I 
solve my problem with new version of MC ?
The mc message: Confirmation Chosen display charset (Settings->Display bits) or source codeset (in mcedit ctrl-t) does not match one set via locale. Set correct codeset manually or press <<Fix it>> to set locale default. Or set 'don' task again' and press <<Skip>> [ ] don't ask again [< Fix it >] [ Skip ] BTW in mc there is not any settings with display bits, there is only options menu with display bits. Wrong help dialogs ? Thank you Daniel _______________________________________________

ls -ld /usr/share/locale/*8859-2 for a list of ISO8859-2 locales. Use the complete name, e.g. cs_CZ.ISO8859-2.

To set the above locale in sh and work-alikes use
LC_ALL=cs_CZ.ISO8859-2; export LC_ALL
(the syntax you tried, but your locale spec was wrong, and that's why it protested).

To set the above locale in csh and work-alikes use
setenv LC_ALL cs_CZ.ISO8859-2
