# Locale en_NL I wanted a custom locale for my desktop. Most stuff is straight from en_US, but I've made some modifications. Most relevantly, the decimal separator is a period and thosuand separator a comma. ## Installing On Fedora 39, copy the file `en_NL` to `/usr/share/i18n/locales` Then, compile and select it: ```sh sudo localedef --no-archive -i en_NL -f UTF-8 en_NL.UTF-8 sudo localectl set-locale en_NL.UTF-8 gsettings set org.gnome.system.locale region "en_NL.utf8" ``` Then logout and log back in and everything should be changed. ## Thanks Many thanks to [this answer on Unix Stack Exchange](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/197693/38945)
