I think there is an error in
http://gambasdoc.org/help/doc/locale

About the charset it says:
"All characters that follows the xx_YY string are ignored by Gambas."

I had a big problem when I tried to run my prog in English, because with "en_GB"
or "en_US" a wrong charset was loaded. One runtime error after the other with
filenames that contained non-ASCII characters.

After searching and reading a long time, I didn't know what to do and finally
just tried the environment variable LANG = "en_GB.UTF-8" - and, voila, now it
works wonderful! Gambas doesn't ignore this.
