Possibly. But I wasn't aware of the existence of such a thing.

Well, edited to en_IE.UTF-8, yes :-)

It's too late now, I'm afraid. I've deleted all the Enlightenment packages and
gone back to plain ol' Gnome. It was an experiment for me anyway, but it was
enough to demonstrate that E is definitely The Path To Enlightenment :-) 

Unfortunately I absolutely don't have the time right now to start into manual
re-setup of things like networking config GUIs which were already working
under Gnome and which got trampled on somehow. They need to be utterly,
utterly transparent to an end user. I'll come back to it during the summer and
have another try. Thanks for all your help.
