An XUL-based extension for Mozilla Firefox, Thunderbird and the SeaMonkey suite that exposes the hidden preferences that define the preferred language for the user interface of the application.
The latest public release can be found in the main page of the extension in addons.mozilla.org (AMO). Older releases, along with the changelogs and compatibility info, are listed in the versions page in AMO.
Being a so-called "legacy" add-on, it can't be installed in Firefox 57 (a.k.a Firefox Quantum) and later versions, where only add-ons built using the WebExtensions model are accepted. Sadly, it's not possible to port this add-on to WebExtensions.
The only remaining option for Fx users is to manage the language manually, setting the related internal preferences of the application each time.
- A (still rudely incomplete) general user guide
- A description of some advanced, hidden preferences
- All the language names for the respective locale codes used to identify language packs
