He uses an sv_SE.UTF-8 locale, which appears to be the default on Redhat 8, if you ask for a Swedish environment. IMO, UTF-8 locales will replace everything else on Linux in the long run. Otherwise, system-wide files (and file names) will be restricted to ASCII forever, and people will not accept not having accented and CJK characters in /etc/passwd, for their real names. I expect other Unices to take a similar direction. Regards, Martin
