    wxPython i18n question

    Is it possible to tell the wxPython widgets (e.g. file dialogs)
    to use another language (instead of English)?

    Thanks in advance for any hints!

      That should certainly be possible. In standard wxPython builds, you
      are restricted to characters of the "host" encoding (I'm not sure what
      that encoding is). There are separate "Unicode" builds of wxPython,
      where you can use Unicode strings throughout.

      Regards,
      Martin

          Yes, look at article on i18n at wxPython Wiki.

              You mean to use GNU gettext? I thought, this will only provide
              i18n for the parts of the application which I wrote myself (e.g.
              buttons, menus), but *not* for predefined wxPython widgets like
              file dialogs etc. !?

                  You should not only set usual locale by locale.setlocal e() call, but
                  also use wxLocale. Check wxWindows documentation on wxLocale.
