Goran,

Forget about euro.inc.gz, I've got the same in there as you but solved 
the Euro problem now!

Thanks to the interesting links you gave in your previous message I was 
able to clear the problem (thanks Debian) and in fact it's only a very 
minor change I had to apply.
It concerns the LANG variable. From stock I had LANG=nl, well by simply 
changing it to LANG=nl_BE.ISO-8859-15 the Euro symbol appeared when 
typed in kedit! I had to be sth. as crazy like this. And to think no one 
from Mandrake was able to give us this hint?


The documents sum up all the changes you need to apply to various apps 
to give them the Euro. I now also have it in Eterm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I jumped to the ceiling and stayed stuck there for 2 sec., then fell 
down again; what a kick! This has been a very rewarding Sunday evening!

I hope is works for you too.

See ya,

Guy.
