| OK,
You need to set your Language to either US English or
British English from the Language-Customize pulldown
in your session manager. Once this is done, check your
.Xdefaults file in your home directory (DECW$XDEFAULTS.DAT
on VMS) for a line which says :
*xnlLanguage: en_GB
This line may have a ".xxxxx" (where x is a number) added
to the end, remove the .xxxxx, log out and then back in
again, all should now be OK. If there is no .xxxx dont
worry about logging out, you should be allset.
Cheers,
Phil

This is fine if you are running on a DECstation. What if you are
running on a DECsystem where there is no session manger running?
I took a look at the C code and it appears as though there is no default
for the XrmGetResource call.
Perhaps it might be best to make 'en_US' as the default and therefore,
if there is no resource to be found, it would use the default.

| Dave,
Yep, there is no default, although I think we should have one, so I will
do that.
As for the bit about if you are not running on a workstation, well, thats
really irrelevent as the calls we make are querying the X-Server and not
reading the defaults file, so you could be logged in to the same account
on the server from a workstation using both US and British English with
no problems.
Cheers,
Phil

| Phil,
OK, that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.
