[PD] 048-test5 > w32 strange chars

[Christof Ressi]

the last line must be:

start "" "pd.exe"

(see Marshall's answer in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/324539/how-can-i-run-a-program-from-a-batch-file-without-leaving-the-console-open-after ) 

then it works, thanks!

Christof

PS: just renaming 'po' is easier, though :-p.

In looking in the pd-gui.tcl, we do check for the LANG environment variable on Windows. You could make a batch script wrapper to launch pd. Maybe something like:
 
SET LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
start "pd.exe"
 
Put the in a file in the bin folder with pd.exe and name it something like "PdStart.bat" or whatever. Then double click that instead of the pd.exe. It should override the system locale settings this way without having to remove or rename the po folder.
 
Let me know if that works and I can add the info to the po/README.txt.

ah sorry, I was only relating to oliver's question if it's possible to change Pd back to english (I can't stand using Pd in German).

Well, it's not a *real* fix but just confirms the issue is with loading translations.

I think renaming the po dir might work
perfect, that works! :-) I'm pretty relieved now.
