This is my /etc/.profile file configured for the Spanish keyboard (ie. dieresis, accents, n~,...). All you should do is changing: export LC_ALL=es_ES for: export LC_ALL=es_DE I hope it works. Tschüss (sorry, no eszet in my keyboard). # /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for bash(1). PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games" PS1="\\$ " export PATH PS1 export LC_ALL=es_ES umask 002 -- Un saludo, Horacio ------------------------ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------
