What is the output of:
LANG=C locale
Do you set LANGUAGES ?
$ LANG=C locale
LANG=C
LANGUAGE=he_IL:he:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.utf8"
LC_TIME="he_IL.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.utf8"
LC_PAPER="he_IL.utf8"
LC_NAME="he_IL.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.utf8"
LC_ALL=he_IL.utf8
I see. How does one set the locate parameters for LANG=C? And when I
do set them, to what English is C expected to be? Could you post for
me the output of your C locale so that I might set mine to the same
values? Thanks, Tzafrir.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
