Hi Roland,

Basically POSIX is a single, global locale model system as you know and
so people cannot really mix up LC_CTYPE being of UTF-8 and LC_COLLATE
or LC_MESSAGES being of EUC-JP since such codesets are incompatible (except
subrepertoire of 7-bit ASCII characters known as portable character set
or portable filename character set as you also know).

Which of the LC* variables is responsible to set the encoding which an
application or shell uses? I never understood why there are different
LC* variables.
