Whatever it is that you wanted to know. E.g. if you were wondering "Can I set umask 002 for my entire session, both terminals and menu-launched GUI apps?" then you might try setting umask in whatever place is appropriate (probably ~/.xsessionrc) and seeing whether it takes effect everywhere. If you were wondering "Can I set LANG=en_US.UTF-8 together with LC_TIME=C", then try *that*. It's a lot faster to try things and see what happens, than to wait for random people on a mailing list to offer their guesses.
