;-)

My intention was to make setting the language easier in the sense of having 
something people can click on. You know, for the Windows users ... ;-)  I 
don't really like the option of one or several batch files. This will only 
cause trouble to (and from) the not so computer-literates.

Jim had the idea of the command line option, which is actually not bad. If 
I have to set the LANG variable before running gnubg I need a batch file. 
(Sure, one can set it permanently at start-up. But this is even OS version 
dependant and remember the above mentioned users.)
With a command line option an adjusted shortcut would be enough to run with 
a different language.
