I have visited this problem some time ago, and these were my (more or less accurate) findings:
- There are language strings in the C code as well as in Tcl
- In Tcl there is a straightforward way to redefine the language, but I haven't found a way to change the actual strings on the display without having to restart Pd
- I have no idea how it goes on the C side :)
- My impression is that this may go beyond the scope of a plugin

language-plugin, anyone ? :)

The easiest way is to start it in the Terminal like this:
GNU/Linux: LANG=en pd-extended
Mac OS X: LANG=en /Applications/Pd-extended.app/Contents/Resources/bin/pd
Windows (in cmd.exe):
set LANG=en
"%ProgramFiles%\pd\bin\pd"
If you want to force English, you can also delete the .msg files in the pd/po
folder.

Hi,
with the latest Pd version, Pd uses the system language as standard. The thing
is, I want to keep my Pd in english. How is it possible to set the language
when starting Pd?
Where can suggestions to the language be sent?
Best,
