I think there's still the TERM hack (I used to do that with rlogin in the past, to transmit the DISPLAY via the TERM variable). But I really don't want to use that if there is a better way. If terminals could be asked for their locales with an escape sequence, this would be a solution (when being connected to a terminal). Is it possible? If not, could this be added as an extension? -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
