I am like Frans, not completely understanding the implications of the charset pointed by locales, but I feel the inconsistency somewhere. All this goes further�: why do we keep these locales if they are not consistent? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
