Yes, the rational thing behind this (which may not be very=20 valid) is that [] time stamps are mostly used to *record* an event, and=20= therefore the timestamps should not be changed...... But I think you are right, it is not very intuitive. > > ** On a German Windows XP, I get German day names in timestamps > What I mean is that I get timestamps like [2006-06-28 Mi].

There are 3 Emacs variables for this: Variable: locale-coding-system This variable specifies the coding system to use for decoding system=20 error messages, for encoding the format argument to format-time-string,=20= and for decoding the return value of format-time-string. Variable: system-messages-locale This variable specifies the locale to use for generating system error=20 messages. Changing the locale can cause messages to come out in a=20 different language or in a different orthography. If the variable is=20 nil, the locale is specified by environment variables in the usual=20 POSIX fashion. Variable: system-time-locale This variable specifies the locale to use for formatting time values.=20 Changing the locale can cause messages to appear according to the=20 conventions of a different language. If the variable is nil, the locale=20= is specified by environment variables in the usual POSIX fashion. If these are nil, then the locale is set somewhere in your environment.=20= I don't know what legal values are, but I would suspect that you can=20= set the above variables to change the weekday abbreviations in time=20 stamps. Maybe this is enough of a pointer..... Thanks. - Carsten=
