Hmm... I've added all this in my /etc/env.d/02locale:

LANG=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TIME=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE=3D"C"
LC_MONETARY=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_NAME=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"

and in my ~/.bashrc

export LANG=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_CTYPE=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_NUMERIC=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_TIME=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_COLLATE=3D"C"
export LC_MONETARY=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_MESSAGES=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_PAPER=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_NAME=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_ADDRESS=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_TELEPHONE=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_MEASUREMENT=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"
export LC_IDENTIFICATION=3D"en_GB.UTF-8"

but this is what aterm is showing:

$ locale
LANG=3Den_GB.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION=3D"en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=3Den_US.UTF-8

There's no mention of LANG or LC_*US* in /etc/profile.env, /etc/bash/bashrc=
,=20
or anywhere else that I can see.  So, where is it being read from?

PS. Not sure why LANG=3Den_GB.UTF-8 does not have " " marks like the LC_=20
parameters?
=2D-=20

Mick
