   Hello Wilfred.   
      
   25 Mar 24 15:13, you wrote to me:

    WvV> The locale is there, so is it wrong?   
      
   I have no idea. It looks correct. But output looks like ncurses uses incorrect   
   locale.   
      
    WvV>>> It doesn't matter if I use luit or not, they are displayed the   
    WvV>>> same. Also the ~A characters for messages with CHRS: CP437 in   
    WvV>>> the german areas are still there.   
      
   Remind me. Do you have XLAT conversion table from cp437 to cp850?   
      
    WvV>>> And this is still the same:

    VA>> This looks like locale is not used. I saw such pictures when   
    VA>> Strange.   
      
    VA>> Do you use latest GoldEd build?   
      
    WvV> Almost. I'm using this one:

    WvV> The latest one doesn't seem so change anything regarding screen

   Looks like incorrect locale to me again.   
      
    VA>> Do you still run it with LANG=en_US.cp850?   
    WvV> Yes.   
      
    VA>> In some message I saw en_EN.CP850.   
      
    WvV> The localdef command, created the directory with lowercase 'cp850'   
    WvV> although I specified it with uppercase 'CP850'. It also shows it with   
    WvV> lowercase 'cp' when locale -a is executed. So I switched to specifying   
    WvV> it as lowercase in my golded start script. But case probably doesn't   
    WvV> matter.   
      
   No, I mean that i saw you using en_*EN*.cp850, not en_*US*.cp850. That is   
   important.   
      
    VA>> Could you also run:   
    VA>> LANG=en_US.cp850 locale   
      
    WvV> Here are some tries:   
      
    WvV> wilnux5:/home/fido/log # locale   
    WvV> LANG=POSIX   
    WvV> LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8   
                        ^^^^^   
   This is not correct

   These guys too.   
    WvV> LC_ALL=   
      
   [...skipped...]   
      
   Make sure that all LC_-s are en_US.cp850. Especially LC_CTYPE.
