Hmm... Perhaps something like this might work around your problem? Setting environment variables on the same command line does not set them in the user's environemnt but only sets them in the environment for that particular command. LC_ALL=de_DE seq 0 ,2 1 0 0,2 0,4 0,6 0,8 LC_ALL=POSIX seq 0 .2 1 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 > (2) Also for programming purpose (e.g. generating case labels with vim it > would be nice to have octal and hex output. Perhaps you can use the 'printf' command to translate? for n in $(seq 7 20); do printf "0x%X\n" $n; done 0x7 0x8 0x9 0xA 0xB 0xC 0xD 0xE 0xF 0x10 0x11 0x12 0x13 0x14 Bob _______________________________________________ Bug-sh-utils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-sh-utils
