Hi,

First of all I'd like to say that I find orgmode great. I'd been looking for
a tool like this for years.
I have a french version of windows so when I set a timestamp on an item with
C-c >, I get the timestamp in french.
I'd like to get it in english.
I've tried setting the language environment to english through the menu
(options/mule/set language environment) but it makes no difference.
In a previous mail of this mailing list (
http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg03064.html), it is
mentioned that this depends on the variable system-time-locale.

How can I set system-time-locale to english permanently in my emacs init
file? ( I'm a newbie to emacs)

I've tried the following, but it doesnt work:

(set-locale-environment English)
(system-time-locale English)

Thanks very much.
