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

I don't know where locales are set 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. Grégoire

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 ALexander

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.
