Thanks for the tip about miro. I installed it but get the following
errors when I run miro --help:

 2/home/daf}miro --help
WARNING:root:gtcache.init: setlocale failed.  setting locale to 'C'

(miro.real:18896): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback 'C' locale.

    return _setlocale(category, locale)

Is there additional setup I should be doing?

Thanks.
