E.g., an interface that I could pass a set of standard locale names (in the format of <language>_<COUNTRY>) and or a set of encodings and have it pull up those that match not using a lexicographical comparison but by intelligently mapping the standard names to the native ones used on each platform). That way I could call rw_locales() for example like so: rw_locales (0, 0, "UTF-8"); to give me the names of all locales encoded in UTF-8. Or maybe like so: rw_locales (0, "de_CH en", 0); to find all German locales for Switzerland in all encodings, and also all English locales for all countries in any encoding. Etc. Or something along those lines... But I don't want us to have to hardcode different sets of locale and codeset names for each platform in every set, and I don't think that just taking the first N lines of locale -a output is a good solution either.And you consider this to be 'low hanging fruit'? :)
He he :) Okay, so maybe we can come up with something a little more within reach the interim. Martin
