Well, I had this problem, but was able to find a solution for it. Setting $XNLSPATH to /usr/lib/X11/nls is not sufficient, if nls doesnt contain anything. I basically found these libraries and put them in and Netscape can paste. My /usr/lib/X11/nls looks like this: $ pwd /usr/lib/X11/nls $ ls C ja_JP.mscode ko_KR.euc lt_LN.bit8 wr_WR.ct ja_JP.jis7 ja_JP.pjis local_im_tbl nls.alias zh_CN.ugb ja_JP.jis8 ja_JP.ujis lt_LN.bit7 nls.dir zh_TW.big5 $ Incidently, I had trouble finding them, but eventually took them off an old CD I had (of FreeBSD 1.0 and XFree86 2.0). I am sure there is probably a better solution, but at least this one works for me. -- Wilfred J.
