I think (?) Algis is on Ubuntu, and in that case it should be a simple
matter of typing in a terminal

LANG=lt_LT@UTF-8 bzr explorer

and similarly for any other language.   Normally it should run in
whichever language you choose at the login screen, which implicitly
sets $LANG.

I think this also works on Windows?

Maybe it should be added to the Explorer docs?
There is a bug open asking for a way to change the language setting
within the GUI (which might require respawning explorer.)
