   How can I change my gis.m language? It's displaying the menus in portuguese but this translation is incomplete and I want to see the menus in english.

Thanks.

Pablo,
assuming, that you are using Linux/MacOSX/Cygwin and bash style syntax:

       export LANG=en_US
       export LANGUAGE=en_US
       export LC_ALL=en_US

will switch to English. I have several scripts like this to switch to
another
language on the fly. You can even change it in a GRASS session.

As Jachym points out, the "default" locale is "C" (or "POSIX", which
is an alias).

That will avoid translation altogether; you will get the exact strings
directly from the source file, as if GRASS was built --without-nls.

Also, provided that LC_ALL is unset (which it should be), it is only
necessary to set LC_MESSAGES to affect message translation (you may
also want to set LC_NUMERIC=C to ensure that the decimal point is a
dot rather than a comma).
