Hi Hans, Thanks for that. I'm running macOS Mojave, version 10.14.6. In the Language & Region settings, I had
English (Canada) - Primary French (Canada) listed. When I deleted French and restarted Lilypond, my console reverted to English. However: In trying to determine whether it was the system list position which dominates Lilypond, I added French as my primary language so that the system language list was like so. French (Canada)- Primary English (Canada) Guess what? Lilypond went with French. Can we therefore assume that on macOS at least, Lilypond prefers French to English? ;) Cheers, sb9k On 2021.07.03 05:28 , Hans Aikema wrote: >> On 3 Jul 2021, at 02:57, spambot9000 <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Hello Everyone, >> >> My Lilypond console spontaneously changed its language to French at some >> point, although I did nothing that I know of to instigate this. >> >> Example: >> >> ''' >> Traitement de « /Users/-------/Music/lilypondScores/20210702-test.ly » >> Analyse... >> Interprétation en cours de la musique... >> Pré-traitement des éléments graphiques... >> Détermination du nombre optimal de pages... >> Répartition de la musique sur une page... >> Dessin des systèmes... >> Conversion à « 20210702-test.pdf »... >> Compilation menée à son terme, avec succès. >> ''' >> >> Does anyone know how I can change this back to English? >> >> Thanks in advance, >> s9k >> > I would expect that something you did has changed your system locale.
