You can find most of our knowledge via
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Locale_Settings

Under linux I get:
>LANG=sv_SE gnucash


Detta �r en utvecklingsversion. Den kanske inte fungerar.
Rapportera fel och andra problem till gnucash-devel at gnucash.org.
Du kan ocks� skapa och s�ka efter felrapporter p� http://bugzilla.gnome.org
To find the last stable version, please refer to http://www.gnucash.org

Reminder to myself: I should check the console font.
It seems, the last line changed since the last sv translation.
