Is it possible to obtain the current locale, save it, then change to the output locale, save the file, then restore the original locale?

We should also check that, for example, the x-y (centroid) output file is not corrupted since it uses a "," to seperate fields.Locales should control the presentation and acceptance format of values, not the file formats. That should match both needs.I've now made it: #if defined (ENABLE_NLS) /* Do our own setlocale() stufff since we want to override LC_NUMERIC */ gtk_set_locale(); setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "POSIX"); /* use decimal point instead of comma */ #endif /* Prevent gtk_init() and gtk_init_check() from automatically | calling setlocale (LC_ALL, "") which would undo LC_NUMERIC if ENABLE_NLS | We also don't want locale set if no ENABLE_NLS to keep POSIX LC_NUMERIC. */ gtk_disable_setlocale(); gtk_init(argc, argv); So if there's no ENABLE_NLS, gtk is stopped from setting the locale; and data formats and gui presentation is in decimal point "C" locale as was with the Xt PCB. And when the configure script is set up to ENABLE_NLS for translations, this will override to keep LC_NUMERIC as before. I don't think it will be possible to have separate data and gui presentation LC_NUMERIC locales without custom file IO functions. Bill
