I don't have the machine I normally use available here, but my semi-educated
guess would be that I use locale "C" and that I do not have a preference set.
However, I fail to see why the locale and/or preferences should interfer with
the entry currency. I assume that the reason an account has a currency is that
all entries in that account are in the given currency, independently of whether
I am in Taiwan or in Germany or elsewhere. In my case I have bank accounts in
several currencies, and would normally enter transactions in the local currency
for each account and expect the entry to follow the account (except, of course,
through "inter currency" transfers (BTW, nice that the intermediate account for
that is gone now).
All the best
Jan
