Great! Thanks for the clarification. Using Levi's startkde modification 
to check my KDE environment, I successfully sourced my 
internationalization variables from ~/.kde/env. I created a file called 
i18n.sh which is:

# i18n.sh
# Set up internatinalization for KDE

source ~/.i18n

I've included ~/.i18n in my previous email.

And Levi, it appears I spoke too soon about LC_CTYPE. Now that KDE 
sources from ~/.kde/env, I don't need to set LC_CTYPE to my desired 
character type (for KDE/Qt applications, GTK still needs LC_CTYPE). So, 
I'm half way there - I wonder if I have a typo somewhere... Thanks for 
you help!
