I think this IS a problem for emelfm2 )
Changing user MIGHT change the current suite of environment variables, e.g.
root
LANG=en_US.utf8
as root, su somebody
LANG=en_US.utf8
as root, su --login somebody
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Character-encodings may have valid aliases e.g. for UTF-8
unicode-1-1-utf-8
utf-8
utf8
I haven't been able to come up with a generic, robust and reasonably
practicable runtime discriminator between unintended changes (such as after su)
and intended (such as en_US.UTF-8 to fr_FR.utf-8).
I've coded a new command-line option -g,--lang=LANG which, if used, prevails
over the environment-variable LANG as the suffix of the configuration file to
be used. However that doesn't help with unintended changes.
