> I've read the FAQ and the alternative to using the NSIS installer's
Registry key is using an Environment variable which might not be much of
an alternative for users running as non-administrative users. So, users
running the portable version of Pidgin in a system which is not under
their control have no easy way to setup the language.
[[BR]]
Any user can set up a user-level environment variable with or without
Administrator privileges. All that's necessary is access to either the
System control panel applet, Command Prompt (cmd.exe), or Windows
Powershell. Failing that, a user that uses Pidgin from a thumbdrive can
create a .bat file with the appropriate set command and subsequently
launch pidgin.exe once the variable is set.
