Hi Karl,
> C and POSIX are perhaps the two most common localesYes. > and i may be wrong of course but i thought they were VALID locales? You are not wrong. They are absolutely valid, and in fact ubiquitious. Thus to have software which refuses to work in the C aka POSIX locale makes no sense. What is the actual issue?
The problem here is that we need to know the user's lang/country info plus the user's encoding, and we try to use the locale configuration for that. So, if we get C or POSIX as locales, what should we do?
