Thanks for the reply. Well, locale is useful :) running "locale" in Geany gives
``` LANG="de.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="C" LC_CTYPE="C" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_MONETARY="C" LC_NUMERIC="C" LC_TIME="C" LC_ALL="C" ``` running in terminal gives: ``` locale -a |grep de de_AT de_AT.ISO8859-1 de_AT.ISO8859-15 de_AT.UTF-8 de_CH de_CH.ISO8859-1 de_CH.ISO8859-15 de_CH.UTF-8 de_DE de_DE.ISO8859-1 de_DE.ISO8859-15 de_DE.UTF-8 ``` That shows, the locale "de.UTF-8" geany picks up from somewhere does not exist on my MacOS installation. in .profile the (overkill) setting of ``` export LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_COLLATE="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_CTYPE="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_MESSAGES="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_MONETARY="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_NUMERIC="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_TIME="de_DE.UTF-8" export LC_ALL="de_DE.UTF-8" ``` is not seen by geany, even after restarting it. running locale again gives the same result Question: from where does geany pick up "de.UTF-8“, or rather how to provide geany/gtk with a supported locale? thanks -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
