Depends on what "simply editing by hand" means. ;)

My default/locales file now looks like:

LANGUAGE=us #LANG=en_US.iso885915 #LC_ALL=en_US.iso885915 #LC_MESSAGES=en_US.iso885915 COUNTRY=us

date shows as expected, NY time, I can set locale to none, en_GB, en_US or whatever, and it works perfectly.

Now, I could use kdm, if I wished, which I don't, (but I like everything to work ;) )but every time dependent thing, calendars, etc, now works right from angfang on.

So, both issues, time and charset were related, I did not know how, but you, as always, solved the issue.

You are indeed the best.

Best, M
