Title: How can i change the language of the client?
Post by: TiagoTiago on May 31, 2011, 05:42:51 AM
Seems it automaticly choose a language based on the system OS, but it choose the wrong wrong, it's using Portugal's Portuguese and not Brazilian Portuguese ( "Ficheiro" instead of "Arquivo" for example) ; is there a way i can force it to use the original English ? (i prefer things in the original language when it's a language i understand; i've way seen too many bad translations, even in big movies in the cinema; if not even professionals paid to do translation work can do it right i hold very low expectations on translation jobs done by volunteer amateurs)

You can rename the locale/pt/ directory to something else and restart bitcoin. It will default to English.
