Regional Settings

[pldd4]

hi,

Does anyone know how to change the regional settings on Linux to english UK, instead of US?

Thanks for any help

Something along the lines of:

localedef -i en_GB -f ISO-8859-1 en_GB

will change your locale. Only problem is I don't know exactly how it changes the behaviour of Linux. If you have specific issues with certain packages - you will probably have to tackle them at the application configuration level (eg ispell tries to tell you there is such a word as "color" http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/wink.gif)
