Hello, Section 8c of the handbook tells me:
=== You now have the possibility to set the system-wide locale settings in the /etc/env.d/02locale file: === Code Listing 3.8: Setting the default system locale in /etc/env.d/02locale LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="C" === Q1: Do I have the possibility to set the system-wide locale settings? A1: YES [I knew the answer to this one!] Q2: Should I? A2: ? Q3: If yes, what should I set them to? [The example sets them to a magical value that seems to be related to code listing 3.6, but it is not exactly the same. I am in the united states and I speak english if that helps answer this one.] A3: ? Thank you! Chris PS: In case it is not clear already I have no idea what a locale is and have no preference or what it is so long as gentoo and all my apps are happy.
