You can't specify this directory.

The translations of a gambas project (*.po files) are stored in the ".lang" 
sub-directory of the project, with their compiled version (*.mo files).

When you make an executable, the *.mo files of the .lang directory are stored 
in it.

When you run the executable, a temporary directory is created, and the 
compiled translation file (*.mo) of the current language is stored in this 
directory and used.

When the program ends, these temporary directories are destroyed.

Why do you want to know that?
