Exactly. And I want to learn how to shoot that dang thing down. Dead. If I've cleared my environment of LC_* and LANG values, then by gum ``echo [a-z]*'' should work the way it has for the past 35 years, and not some newfangled thing that somebody thought would be "helpful". Down with "system default locale". Thanks - Bruce _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
