Hi,

Iam trying to compile a simple program to print euro symbol on redhat linux system.

My system details:
GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4, by Roland McGrath et al.
Compiled by GNU CC version 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4).
Compiled on a Linux 2.4.20 system on 2004-12-20.


my c program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>

int main() {
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "");
printf("%lc", 0x20ac);
return 0;
}
(removed additional checks to reduce length of mail)

[root@hyrlnx01 test]# LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 ./a.out
Euro sign: Γé¼

[root@hyrlnx01 test]# LANG=de_DE@euro ./a.out
Euro sign: ñ

I have modified the file /etc/sysconfig/i18n to contain following lines
SYSFONT=lat0-16
SYSFONTACM=iso15

But Iam getting the same output.

Do I need to install any other packages ?
Do I need to modify any other configuration files ?

Please clarify and advise

Regards
Sudhakar

Try setting LANG=en_US.UTF-8, where the UTF-8 is the important part.

Kind regards,

Herta
