I know of no way to determine the names of the month from the locale in any automatic fashion. From what I've gathered, FSF Emacs uses some sort of heuristics to work anyway. I'm not a big fan of this approach, but I'll investigate at some point. Anyway, you want to set `dired-re-month-and-time' to something reflecting your locale, and you should be fine. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
