and how to make this default?
Only for mc, or for the entire system? For the entire system, edit /etc/sysconfig/language, and set RC_LANG="C" (untested). Here is a patch for mc: --- /usr/share/mc/bin/mc-wrapper.sh.orig 2004-09-09 18:30:10.000000000 +0200 +++ /usr/share/mc/bin/mc-wrapper.sh 2004-10-07 11:59:43.093697268 +0200 @@ -1,5 +1,8 @@ MC_PWD_FILE="${TMPDIR-/tmp}/mc-$USER/mc.pwd.$$" +SAVE_LANG="$LANG" +export LANG="C" /usr/bin/mc -P "$MC_PWD_FILE" "$@" +export LANG="$SAVE_LANG" if test -r "$MC_PWD_FILE"; then MC_PWD="`cat $MC_PWD_FILE`" But you can also edit mc-wrapper.sh by hand.
