Of course! As I set the LC_ALL to ${LANG}.

I must be crazy!
See the attached... :)
I think you will notice that System font has Hebrew...
An for some strange reason the LC_ALL affect this.

You will notice two instances of notepad...
First instance is activated using:
LC_ALL="${LANG} notepad
Second (<2>) instance is activated using:
notepad

My locale is:
$ locale
LANG=he_IL.utf8
LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8
LC_NUMERIC=he_IL.utf8
LC_TIME=en_US.utf8
LC_COLLATE=he_IL.utf8
LC_MONETARY=he_IL.utf8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8
LC_PAPER=he_IL.utf8
LC_NAME=he_IL.utf8
LC_ADDRESS=he_IL.utf8
LC_TELEPHONE=he_IL.utf8
LC_MEASUREMENT=he_IL.utf8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=he_IL.utf8
LC_ALL=

> Again, what's exactly the problem you are observing?

First I could never type Hebrew... But throughout this bug I realized that the
LC_ALL someone modify wine behavior, while I expected the LANG would do so.

I still don't understand the difference between the two instances of notepad,
all I know that one is working and the other does not...
Also that if I setup LC_ALL="${LANG}" ies4linux also works correctly.

So basically I am asking why wine does not use LANG in order to detect locale?

Don't get me wrong here... I am very happy that it is working now... But still
I think something is odd with configuration.

Thanks!
