I'm (almost desperately now) trying to localize the output of date(1).
The localization i'm going for, is da_DK.ISO8859-1 which exists on the system: $ ls /usr/share/locale/da_DK.ISO8859-1 LC_CTYPE I have - for a starters - added the following to the default-class in /etc/login: :setenv=LC_CTYPE=da_DK.ISO8859-1:\ and using the in-build function set whithout any arguments i am also able to confirm that the variable is set: LC_CTYPEda_DK.ISO8859-1 I was under the impression, that this also affected LC_TIME but apperently not, as date still prints the date in the international format: $ date Sun Apr 30 12:05:11 CEST 2006 Setting LC_TIME didn't affect the result much: $ export LC_TIME=da_DK.ISO8859-1 $ date Sun Apr 30 12:05:40 CEST 2006 $ And neither did setting LC_ALL, LANG nor LC_MESSAGES: $ export LC_ALL=da_DK.ISO8859-1 $ date Sun Apr 30 12:06:41 CEST 2006 $ export LANG=da_DK.ISO8859-1 $ date Sun Apr 30 12:06:46 CEST 2006 $ export LC_MESSAGES=da_DK.ISO8859-1 $ date Sun Apr 30 12:07:09 CEST 2006 $ Even rebuilding date from /usr/src/bin/date with all these variables didn't have any effect on the result :( Looking through openbsd.org, man -k, the .mk-files, the mailinglist archive and usenet (through groups.google.com) hasn't really presented any solution for me either :( -- Regards Henrik
