I'm in the process of checking this out myself. For one, you need to map the Euro symbol somewhere. It replaces the generic 'currency' symbol, but I have no idea where on your keyboard that is mapped now. In Europe we use something like AltGr-E for the Euro symbol. You can add that yourself with xmodmap: echo "keycode 26 = e E EuroSign">.Xmodmap xmodmap .Xmodmap (Check that E is on keycode 26 before: xmodmap -pke.) After that, you need to set your locale to something Euro-aware, and you need to get fonts that contain the Euro symbol. Have a look here: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Euro-Char-Support/index.html Good luck ;-) Michel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michel Lanners | " Read Philosophy.
