$ locale LANG=en_US.utf8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.utf8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.utf8" LC_TIME="en_US.utf8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.utf8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.utf8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.utf8" LC_PAPER="en_US.utf8" LC_NAME="en_US.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.utf8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.utf8" LC_ALL= When I run dmenu (git tip) I don't have any issues. $ ./dmenu_run When I run dmenu_run with an unsupported locale, the following happens. $ locale -a C en_US.utf8 POSIX $ LANG="en_HK.UTF-8" ./dmenu_run $ warning: no locale support Meaning I get a warning but everything works nonetheless. Are you sure that the dmenu menu bar is not opening for you? I had a quick grep through the code and we are not using wchar_t or one of the mb*/wc* functions once. IIRC, the locale should not make a difference in that case. Cheers, Silvan
