R help - Aug 2005 - Help, my RGui is speaking French!

Dear R-helpers,

First of all I have nothing against the French language!
But now my problem, yesterday I installed R 2.1.1
and I had to experience that my RGui is speaking French.
My windows locals is French (Switzerland).
I'm used to English and I want to reset my RGui to English.
I was seeking for the solution in the archives,
however not successfully.
By the way the searchable archives via:
http://www.r-project.org/, Mailing Lists, R-help, web-interface, searchable
achieves,
did not work: http://maths.newcastle.edu.au/~rking/R/
Also I was seeking in the FAQ's 
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html
and
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/R/rw-FAQ.html
and could not find the solution.
I'm sure that lots of people have queried already 
and that the solution is already written down somewhere.
However I cant find it.
Could somebody give me a hint?

Kind regards,

Dominik

For example, read the most recent R Newsletter on localization of R.
As one solution, set the environment variable
  LANGUAGE=en

Make sure that the environment variable LANGUAGE is set to "en". I
think the consensus is that putting it into HOME/.Renviron is the most
practical way.

Dear R-helpers,

Thank you very much!

Now my RGui shortcut calls R according:

N:\BioAnalyticalScience\8940_InVivoEvaluation\Statistics\R\rw2011\bin\Rgui.exe
--internet2 LANGUAGE=en

Have a nice weekend,

Dominik
