speculatrix,
Are you saying that one need to install the "gettext-devel" package to get the msgfmt and msgunfmt?

unfortunately, I did something wrong previously when I was playing and now the clock dies with the error "Internal error, Application 'Clock' closed. sigh. I will put everything back the way it was and start again.

All,
After installing 0.16.1-2ubuntu3 version of gettext and gettext-base using the Synaptic Package Manager(I have ubuntu 7.10); I got the needed tools to work on the .mo file. I can now select my home city from the N800.
thank you all your help.
Cheers

Why hasn't anyone developed a standalone application that will allow novice users to get the full list of cities to select from?
You would think that this would be a desirable application, right?
After all, my Nokia 9300 phone has a feature to add cities to their World Clock application--it's deceptively simple: enter name, time relative to GMT and latitude/longitude (this puts a dot on the world map!).

You know, the city picking isn't for selecting your nearest city, it's just a relatively reliable (but otherwise irrelevant) way of picking a valid timezone for yourself. I wish there was an option to use the proper city-independent method of selecting the timezone directly, like I can on my desktop (for me that would be MET, Mean European Time) (and then one wouldn't have to even see that more-or-less irrelevant city name).
