Hi, Michael, and thanks for your response.
Unfortunately, setting the LANG variable didn't seem to have any
effect at all. Is there perhaps some set of files I can copy from my
Redhat 7.1 box to fix the problem. I'm not at all familiar with how
the locale settings work. It sure is an annoying problem, though,
because I use the console a lot.
Thanks,
Ben
