I distinctly remember at least one abort was in a program using one of the regular expression library routines (unfortunately, can't remember which one - there are a couple of them at least). I've also had a lot of problems with openmotif apps (yes, old toolkit, not in fedora anymore) aborting inside some sort of mysterious "input method" code. These aborts would all disappear with UTF-8 turned off. I also see strange results for some programs. The output from "ls" appears in mysterious and non-intuitive order unless I set the LC_ALL variable to POSIX. All in all, the more I can live and work in the old 7 bit ASCII stick-in-the-mud world, the happier I am (you should see my .emacs file - eradicating UTF-8 in emacs is *much* harder :-). -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
