That was not my intention. I did second your patch already. What I wanted is to find an explanation for the current state. And I want to change the out of the box default for newly created documents. It is not that easy to create a document with the language matching the current locale as it should be. Of course it is possible to change the defaults after learning the fact the default is not what I want. I cannot believe any user expects English as default document language when using LyX the first time in a non-english environment. Stephan
