Is this the "Gentoo" way of setting this? I've always used .bashrc to set up LANG and LC_ALL. To the OP: I'm using Thunderbird and I didn't have to configure anything special to get the AU date format. Just emerged it. But I had already set LANG and LC_ALL when I built my system. Also, I use FVWM as my WM, so I have no localization settings via KDE or Gnome or such; that may affect things for you? John Moe
