That is a big hammer! But today I prefer to use UTF-8 character sets
and the associated machinery. It is nice to see people's names and
other things as they were intended. Using LC_ALL turns everything
off. Which of course is fine to lock to a very traditional Unix
environment.
I prefer this:
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_COLLATE=C
That way I get the good parts (charsets) but not the bad parts
(collating / sorting). People's definitions of good and bad here are
obviously open to interpretation.
