My question:
This is good idea:
mp_msg_init()
...
setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,""); // set lc_messages
setlocale(LC_TYPE,""); // locale character ...
bindtextdomain("mplayer","/usr/share/locale");
bind_textdomain_codeset("mplayer",nl_langinfo(CODESET));
textdomain("mplayer");
setlocale(LC_TYPE,"C"); // locale default
I quicly probe with LC_ALL=tr_TR so work
(without setlocale(LC_TYPE,"C") don't work).
