Well, it works for me only in Mozilla, not Xterm and Nedit -- basically, 
those are the three apps I use most. =)

/etc/sysconfig/i18n
and modify this :
LC_MONETARY=fr_CH@euro
LC_CTYPE=fr_CH@euro
LC_NUMERIC=fr_CH@euro
LC_MESSAGES=fr_CH@euro
LANGUAGE=fr_CH:fr
LC_TIME=fr_CH@euro

I you want you can do this more quickly ( but will not be permanent ) type 
this in a terminal and launch the application with this term ( give it a try 
with kmail for example ) :
[]$ export LC_ALL=fr_FR@euro

this will modify the previous evironment variables.

Here it is not working, tried different fonts, iso8859-1, iso8859-15...
AltGr+E, Ctrl,Shift+Ctrl,Alt+Ctrl, etc
Nothing
This is swiss keyboard with fr_CH (and yes the euro is displayed on
the E key meaning it should be used with AltGr).

Well, I mean it is useless for me. Having the Euro instead would be 
somewhat more useful for people in France (those with old keyboards).

useless?  UK isn't a Euro country.

Just wondering : is it easy to substitute the useless "£" symbol 
(english currency) in favor of the Euro, on a 102 keys keyboard without 
the Euro key? Just answer if that's not too difficult, otherwise I will 
live without it.

Thanks in advance.

use a local with @euro.
for example if your local is fr_FR, do :
[]$ export LC_ALL=fr_FR@euro

you may have to use a font with a charseet iso8859-15.
If you want to automatise the locale setting, you may put the command in your 
/etc/profile. I don't know where locales are set

I did a fresh install about 2 weeks ago. The current status:

Console : Euro works
Mozilla : Euro works without de_DE@euro
Koffice : Euro does not work - cannot get it to work with de_DE@euro
Gnumeric : Euro does not work - starts to work with de_DE@euro

most other X apps probably do not work with Euro

Uh?  I've set my locale settings to de_DE, and at least on the console
I already have Euro.  In X not, however.  But that may be because I
didn't do a clean install for quite some time now.
