11 That's what I was trying to say: set LANG always, and only set LC_* if you
12 need to override a value. If you need to override everything, (for
13 instance, to turn off localization), you can set LC_ALL. Usually, the only
14 time you want to set LC_ALL is when you want LC_ALL=C (or, equivalently,
15 LC_ALL=POSIX), which effectively disables internationalization/localization.
