How do you start Thunar, from a menu, a button, from a terminal? Thunar normally only runs one process at all, when you open more window it's the same process, called via dbus. The first one is launched by the session (started with --daemon). So check everything is ok for both the first (--daemon) run and subsequent ones. A good way to check would be to quit all thunar windows, quit the last, daemonized one if it exists (using thunar --quit) and then running thunar from a “safe” place (somewhere with correct locales). My guess is that you don't have the daemon running, and the various thunar instances aren't started the same way, but if you can provide us more details about how/from where you run them, it'd help us. Here, if there's no daemon running, all the Thunar windows (processes in that case) respects the locales inherited from environment (so if I export LC_MESSAGES=fr_FR.UTF-8 before running thunar, it'll appear in french). If the daemon is running, all the Thunar window (which belong to the same process) inherits the locale from where the --daemon process was run. Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
