These applications can easily be localized, as they include languagefiles.
All files together would be very big (gnumeric:20 MB).
So they are not included in Puppy.
I wrote small language-installers, that help to install only your personal language.

Localization for Abiword, gnumeric, xmms, others
Problem with localization
Hello,
I've tried to localizate in french Abiword an Gnumeric with the above language tool in Puppy 1.09 and Puppy 2.0, but without success.
The dotpup package installs without problem...but the commands of Abiword and Gnumeric remain in English.
I've also tried to translate the menus of dia, gnumeric and sylpheed using the following actions :
- modification of /etc/profile with the following commands :
export LANG=fr
export LC_ALL=fr_FR
- Copy of dia.mo, gnumeric.mo, sylpheed.mo in the directory
/usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES
- After a reboot of the system these applications are always in English
Could someone explain me step by step the procedure to obtain my applications in french. I suppose it could be possible whith .mo files found in other Linux distributions?
Thank you for your help

Like this gnumeric works:
sh-3.00# export LC_ALL=fr_CA
sh-3.00# gnumeric
There are mor fr_ listed in /usr/lib/locale:
sh-3.00# ls -d -1 fr*
fr
fr_BE
fr_BE.utf8
fr_BE@euro
fr_CA
fr_CA.utf8
fr_CH
fr_CH.utf8
fr_FR
fr_FR.utf8
fr_FR@euro
fr_LU
fr_LU.utf8
fr_LU@euro
Hm, now also this works:
sh-3.00# export LC_ALL=fr_CA
sh-3.00# gnumeric
Maybe, because I chose "fr" with "chooselocale" and rebooted.

Alors:
choisissez dans le Puppy-menu
Control Panel - Chooselocale
choisissez "fr".
Editez /etc/profile
cherchez pour "LANG="
Remplacez avec:
Restart l'ordinateur.
Installez francais pour Abiword et Gnumeric avec les programmes de la premiere message.
C'est ca
