I found that from command line firefox -UILocale fr-FR -contentLocale FR
launch firefox in french. Someone know how to make it permanently (in a
config file ?)?

Go to : about:config and change general.useragent.locale to fr-FR and
general.useragent.contentlocale to FR.
Very simple when you know how to do!

windows line breaks in txt files

[Duncan Lithgow]

How can i configure my editors to use windows line breaks? Or do I just 
avoid text files and stick to openoffice or something.

And is it possible for all editors to be configured in one stroke?

the only useful info I've found so far is on editpad lite
http://www.editpadpro.com/linux.html

there's must be a better way...

Use 'unix2dos' on 'em afterwards. 

>  And is it possible for all editors to be configured in one stroke?
No. Some editors may have this feature, but not all will, and they'll all
implement it differently.

windows line breaks in txt files

[Deron Meranda]

The emacs editor can easily handle a variety of line ending
conventions as part of it's Mule (multi-language extensions) package. 
It will automatically detect the type of line ending present in a file
and use that.  If it is using CR+LF rather than the Unix default of
just LF, then the string "(DOS)" will appear on the bottom status
line.

The easiest way to start a new file with dos-style end of line is to
just add one line, and at the end of the line place a CR character by
typing: control-Q control-M.  You should see a "^M" at the end of the
line.  Save the file.  Delete the emacs buffer/window.  Then reload
the file and emacs will autodetect it as a DOS-style file.

Another way to change emac's end of line style is within your text
buffer enacs M-x set-buffer-file-coding-system  [the M-x is
emacs-speak for the meta/alt key, or alternatively ESC x].  (Or if
running graphically under X11, select from the menus
Options->Mule->Set Coding Systems->For Saving This Buffer.)  Then at
the prompt enter one of these two:

  undecided-dos
  undecided-unix

Okay, so there are several solutions but...

I am setting my system up so that my wife, who has no interest in such 
thinks, can simply get used to using a set of programs and use them 
whether the computer is in windows or linux. I personally think that 
needs to be the focus of all attempts to win over windows users.

So, is there a good text editor which runs in windows which will 
correctly detect the line breaks. Then she can use that and be none the 
wiser ;)

Most of them will, as far as I can tell. Even Wordpad will correctly
read Unix line breaks!

What does she want in a text editor? Absolute simplicity?

The only one that doesn't AFAIK is plain old Windows notepad.

My fave Windows text editor for quite some time was EditPad lite ( 
http://www.editpadpro.com/editpadlite.html ).  About a year ago I 
discovered  Notepad++ ( http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/  ) which I 
like even more (and it's  under the GPL). 

Both are programmers editors.  I'm not a programmer myself but I still 
found them most excellent for garden-variety text editing/reading.  I 
didn't use 1/2 of their features but still felt they were vastly 
superior to Windows Notepad (or WordPad).

windows line breaks in txt files [solved]

[Duncan Lithgow]

Okay, I've installed notepad-plus, it's nice and small, has a non 
technical appearance and is gpl'ed. It's now default for any .txt files. 
Problems solved - thanks all.

I found a little program called todos that adds them in for you. I use it
when making batch files for logon scripts for windows machines. I don't
remember where I found it, but I can try and find you a link.

Basically you take a file, pump it through this program, and it creates
all the line breaks. I use pico and nano as my editor.
