Yeah, I know that. Did you do it cross-platform?, because I have no
experience programming for other platform other than Linux and I'd
like to see how you managed it. Maybe we could make an hybrid that if
no locale is defined on the configuration file it tries to get it from
the system locale and if that fails too, it could use my approach.

For example, I see a problem on the GP2X (I have one) were you don't
configure a locale but as it runs Linux, I guess that the system
locale will always be english. In this case the hybrid approach will
probably fail too.

Ernesto.
