I have tracked it down to the variable system-time-locale. However, this is a global variable, so you have to put (make-variable-buffer-local 'system-time-locale) in your .emacs. Then, you can put something like this at the bottom of an org file: * COMMENT local variables for this file # Local Variables: # system-time-locale: "es_MX.ISO8859-1" # End: which will set the locale for that file only. After editing the local variables, you have to do M-x normal-mode to set them for your current session. Thanks to Bastien and Carsten for your suggestions.
