Does that mean I must set my locale to KO to write Korean? Because I can't do that: I don't understand enough Korean for my programs to run in it. But I'm learning, so I like to be able to type in it sometimes.
It depends on the input method. Usually it isn't necessary. Setting it to be what_EVER.UTF-8 may work. Otherwise, LANG=what_EVER.UTF-8 and only LC_CTYPE=ko_KR.UTF-8 should definitely do the trick. I use fcitx to input Chinese, and en_US.UTF-8 is enough for it to process all the characters, except some special symbols that depend on particular encoding. Xiao-Yong -- c/* __o/* <\ * (__ */\ <
