Change LANG temporarily

[ehhen]

For example, when posting something like this, I think most people find it annoying to see something other than English.
What should I do if I want to temporarily start up in English?

Is there a way to do it with minimal effort?
It takes less than 1 minute.

I feel little sad.

Manjaro setting manager - kernel

manjaro setting manager - kernel If it’s just me, I’d appreciate it if you could point it out. There is no rush, but if anything, I think it would be better to fix it. I would like the detail display to be made larger. I would be happy if I could make it resizable. At present, I think it’s too small. It’s better to be helpful. I would be happy if the team could fix it someday. I rarely use it, but I do use it occasionally. One way to think about it is to just accept that that’s just the w…

Hi @ehhen,

All environment variables can be set for that running app as prefix to the command-line. So, the following is all temporary:

Just prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.

Hope this helps!

LC_ALL=C manjaro-settings-manager
I replaced the screenshot.

thanks.

not LANG=C.

[Mirdarthos]

Nope, this one was added for debug purposes, if I recall correct. Exact for use like this…

@Mirdarthos
LC_ALL=C

I just checked $HISTFILE.

during the past 10 years
It looks like I’m using a little over 400.

In my case, I use it with a pipe.

LC_ALL=C sort

The result of sort is different.
Sort speed is faster.

LC_ALL=C sort

There’s no pipe in that command? Or am I missing something? That’s also a distinct possibility…

… Why are you phrasing it like that?
There is no pipe in that command.
Period.

@Nachlese

Why are you phrasing it like that?

Because I know I don’t know everything and am always open to learn new things if there is something to learn. And I might have misunderstood the post, or the sentence. As I said, I know I might miss something and that I’m not perfect no matter what my Mom told me when I was younger and could still be cute.

_{Not too mention that it’s funny sometimes.}

I get it.
But this overfriendlyness and what looks to me as
trying to cover all the possible bases
and even proactively setting yourself up to be in the wrong

is just irritating me to no end.

Sorry - you are one of the nicest persons I have met online.
I did not intend to offend you.

This really didn’t even belong here - I should have just bit my tongue.
but, alas, I didn’t
Sorry!
