VA> Do you need help with locale generation?
I think I found out how to do this on my system.
First I used my systems package manager to install: "glibc-i18ndata
- Database Sources for `locale`"
Afterwards this command ran without any output:
# localedef --no-archive -f IBM850 -i en_US en_US.CP850
#
And this directory was created with contents:
/usr/lib/locale/en_US.cp850
And `locale -a -v` now shows:
...
locale: en_US directory: /usr/lib/locale/en_US

But golded output is borked now, in my current utf-8 configured putty terminal:
https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/2a5c7f2fbdc4
It doesn`t matter if I use luit or not, they are displayed the same.
Also the ~A characters for messages with CHRS: CP437 in the german
areas are still there.
And this is still the same:

Bye, Wilfred.
