Salut Wolfgang

for the gambas3 IDE I tried this, at least I'v got an english Version,
but also this warning

System is "de_DE.UTF-8"

"gbx3: warning: cannot switch to language 'fr_FR.UTF-8': Datei oder
Verzeichnis nicht gefunden. Did you install the corresponding locale
packages?
" 

Public Sub _init()
Dim iRet As Integer
 iRet = Message.Question("start IDE use as language ", "System",
"English", "French")
 Select Case iRet
    Case 1
    Case 2
      System.Language = "en_EN.UTF-8"
    Case 3
      System.Language = "fr_FR.UTF-8"
 End Select

_init starts from a module, so no form is still loaded
