     Dear all,
     
     After Harry provided the new PSPP package for MSWindows including the
     Japanese translation, some of my Japanese friends told me that they
     still want to use PSPP in English. It is partly because they are
     already used to English.
     
     This situation may happen not only in Japanese.
     
     Thus, it will be great if PSPP has a setting option that can enable
     users to switch the language.


This suggestion comes up occasionally.  

Personally, I'm reluctant to start making PSPP - a statistical analysis
tool - do the work of the operating system.  We'll end up rewriting the
whole OS!  AND get complaints that PSPP ignores the OS settings.

When I want to run pspp/psppire without localisation, I just do:

LC_ALL=C psppire
