hi everybody,

I'm nearly not daring to pester the list again with this silly problem, but I'm not able to solve it:

I've installed ion3 via DarwinPorts under MacOS 10.4.7 and it runs fine, only problem is, every menu entry (and auto-generated comments in config files?) appears in finish.

the obvious cause (wrong locale) is ruled out AFAIKS:

> locale
LANG="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_ALL="C"


even more obcure: I rsync'ed the whole stuff between the table top machine and my laptop. on the laptop everything is as it should (i.e. english menu entries). `locale' yields exactly the same on that machine.

question: any ideas what else can cause ion to thing it should run under finish settings?


any help appreciated


regards

joerg



PS: and now for something completely different (as john cleese would have said):

I followed the thread concerning gcc, ld, C and their shortcomings: I recently stumbled over OCaml as a fast, compiled language which seems not so strictly/exclusively functional as Haskell. any opinions concerning that language?
