If I understand you correctly, it can. Just add LANGUAGE=en to the
shortcut.
Wonderful hope but not sure to catch what you term "shortcut". I
tried to add this command in C:\R\rw2011\etc\Rprofile, the .Rprofile
in the folder my documents, but this cannot be understood from
there... which obviously shows that "shortcut" is not a general term
for profiles! I have also
See the rw-FAQ Q2.2.
`Shortcut' is the standard name for files on Windows with extension .lnk.
Another way is to add this to HOME/.Renviron: see the rw-FAQ Q2.17
unsuccessfully looked for a file "shortcut" in the rw2011 folder. I
also tried and went through the R-help archive. There were some
exchanges on this subject and Asian languages some weeks ago but what
I have tried and adapt on this basis did not work.
The objective would be to have R in English (thus additionnally
allowing MDI mode with R-WinEdt, which is not the case with any other
language) and to keep Windows XP and other applications in the
foreign (= French, here) language.
Thanks for any further hint,
