Ubuntu: errors in terminal: how to show them in english language?
i installed Ubuntu in italian language. Now I would like to see the error commands in english.
For example if i write:
$ mmmm
This is showed:
mmmm: comando non trovato
I would like that
mmmmm: command was not found
is showed.
Any idea?

The language used by most applications uses the LC_LANG
or LANG
environment variables to find your language.
You can override it by adding a line
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
to the file
~/.profile
if you want it to be changed for all applications (including GUI applications)to the file
~/.bashrc
for only applications you launch from inside the terminal (assuming your shell isbash
).
You can also override it on a per-application basis by prefixing your command with that definition, e.g.
$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ls
not always working. you may have locale lang set in LANG variable overridden by LANGUAGE variable should use then LANGUAGE=en_US:en in the end of ~/.bashrc
