hi roland, thanks. that sounds like a good plan but there doesn't seem to be a system-supported way to uninstall locales from macosx. /etc/locale.gen etc. don't exist. however, there is a program on sourceforge called monolingual that should do the trick. it uninstalls language localisations but i don't like that it permanently deletes them with no option to restore them if you change your mind later. i'll think about it. cheers, raf -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
