$ LANG=C locale LANG=C LANGUAGE=he_IL:he:en_GB:en LC_CTYPE="he_IL.utf8" LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.utf8" LC_TIME="he_IL.utf8" LC_COLLATE="he_IL.utf8" LC_MONETARY="he_IL.utf8" LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.utf8" LC_PAPER="he_IL.utf8" LC_NAME="he_IL.utf8" LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.utf8" LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.utf8" LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.utf8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.utf8" LC_ALL=he_IL.utf8 I see. How does one set the locate parameters for LANG=C? And when I do set them, to what English is C expected to be? Could you post for me the output of your C locale so that I might set mine to the same values? Thanks, Tzafrir.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
