IMO yes! The correct name is ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist. Its contents is XML. In the Developer Tools metapackage you can find Property List Editor (in /Developer/Applications/Utilities). Apple has a short support document on this: http://developer.apple.com/qa/ qa2001/qa1067.html. You can create the file and its directory from the command line (Emacs' *shell* buffer): defaults write "${HOME}/.MacOSX/environment" LC_ALL el_GR.UTF-8 and write more into the file. To activate the new environment you have to log off and in again. > I understand.
