How to change Language?

[adamyg]

the locale selection, build 266+ search logic follows the steps below:

• LC_ALL environment variable.
• LC_MESSAGES environment variable.
• LANG environment variable.
• LANGUAGE environment variable.
• and by default, results of GetThreadLocale(); which should be the user's default locale.

Setting any of above before starting mc should impact the locale; note the first encountered is utilized,

Please confirm version information, build 226 is the latest

I solved this by removing all the locales except english. In my instalation those locales are in C:\Program Files (x86)\Midnight Commander\locale. So I just backed up the original folder and left the original only with en_GB. But, yeah, it would be cool to have a way to select the locale from the configuration.

Thanks, probably I will follow your trick!
