R help - Dec 2001 - How to Change output language?

In Windows programing, output string may be compiled as resource so we can let a
program support multi-language application. How R can support this?

No, but that's only true of GUI elements. What use would it be to have the
menus in some other language when R itself (and all the help) is in
English?

However, R is a collaborative project, so feel free to program this and
contribute as much of multi-language support as you feel helpful.  You
would probably need to add support for wide characters too.
