Set Unix shell language to English (or to other languages)

set_unix_shell_language.md

Problem: shell language is not in English

$ hello
-bash: hello: コマンドが見つかりません

Solution: Add this to

export LANG="en_US.ISO-8859-1"

to your .bash_profile. Log out and log back in. Now:

$ hello
-bash: hello: command not found

Code strings for other languages, type:

locale -a

at the terminal and the system will list all that are supported.
