When you log in, you can choose a locale: English, German, etc.  You 
picked a UTF8 locale that NEdit doesn't support.  Change it to plain 
en_US and you should be OK.  If you really need UTF-8 for other apps 
(chances are you don't, and it was forced on you) you can run just nedit 
under that locale:

  setenv LANG en_US
  nedit

We'll probably get rid of the warning since the distros have changed and 
made it much more common.
