Gtk-Gnutella 1.2.1 on Windows 11: Is there a way to make that program run with english UI? The translation is incomplete and in some parts really weird. It is not mentioned in the FAQ, not even mentioned as "edit this config file". There is no line in config_gui. Maybe I am lucky and it is already possible - just not documented or included in the supplied config_gui.

    As gettext is use for the localization part.
    Would it work if you set the LANG variable to English for example: LANG="en" and then run the program from the same shell?

    C:\Program Files (x86)\gtk-gnutella>set LANG=en
    C:\Program Files (x86)\gtk-gnutella>gtk-gnutella.exe
    

    Works! Thanks!
