Well, it was all the problem of having en_DK, I changed it to |
14 |
en_US.UTF-8 and all works OK now. However I wanted _DK to have the |
15 |
locale date in the form 2008-07-19 and not 07/21/2008. |

Anyway, why is this we have to choose a territory for our language, I do |
18 |
not live in any english-speaking territory, nor it is Denmark, and I |
19 |
don't want to put on my computer on what territory I live, as it is none |
20 |
of it's business. Couldn't there be something like POSIX.UTF-8 locale, |
21 |
or maybe make the POSIX locale be UTF-8 by default? Or C.UTF-8 |
22 |
I would be very happy not having to put any specific country in the |
23 |
settings of my computer. |
24 |
|
25 |
And ordering of date - what does that have to do with territory and |
26 |
language? I don't care what territory has what ordering commonly used - |
27 |
I want to have it in form 2008-07-19, is there a way to do it? |
