[LUAU] Switchng B/t Languages

[Hawaii Linux Institute]

By sheer luck, I've found out that I can switch from a "regular" (i.e., 
American English) Mozilla to a "traditional Chinese Mozilla" (i.e., 
complete with Chinese tool bar, task bar, mail agent, etc., Chinese 
everything), by running Mozilla from an x-terminal, preceded with a LANG 
statement as follows:

LANG=zh_TW.Big mozilla

You can play the same trick with other programs, such as gedit, 
oowriter, etc.

Of course, the above trick is not limited to Chinese.  For example, you 
can use:

LANG=ja_JP mozilla (or oowriter, gedit, etc.) to switch into a Japanese 
windows environment that will make a Japanese user feel right at home.

To me, this is a very exciting discovery.  This exemplifies an important 
trend that, even in desktops, there are more and more distinct 
advantages of Linux that are being gradually developed and discovered 
that will make more Windows users willing to accept its current 
shortcomings and wait for some of those gaps to be closed.

BTW, this major "breakthrough" (for me any way) works best with GNOME.  
It has some glitches in KDE.  (Needless to say, I am switching to 
GNOME!)  It works in Fedora Core 1/2/3, but encounters some problems 
with Mandrake.  wayne
