org-agenda list on other language than english

[Andrés Ramírez]

Hi.

Would it be possibe to render agenda in other language than English.

Convert from this:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
10 days-agenda (W32-W33):
Wednesday   7 August 2019
Thursday    8 August 2019
Friday      9 August 2019
Saturday   10 August 2019
Sunday     11 August 2019
Monday     12 August 2019 W33
Tuesday    13 August 2019
Wednesday  14 August 2019
Thursday   15 August 2019
Friday     16 August 2019
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

To this (Spanish):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
10 dias-agenda (W32-W33):
Miercoles   7 Agosto 2019
Jueves      8 Agosto 2019
Viernes     9 Agosto 2019
Sabado     10 Agosto 2019
Domingo    11 Agosto 2019
Lunes      12 Agosto 2019 W33
Martes     13 Agosto 2019
Miercoles  14 Agosto 2019
Jueves     15 Agosto 2019
Viernes    16 Agosto 2019
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

If that is not implemented. Any suggestions where could I do the replacements?.

Mostly.

Localised day and month names are taken from your (apparently missing)
calendar setup.  Make sure that your startup file setq's at least
these two variables:

- calendar-month-name-array
- calendar-day-name-array (starts with $SUNDAY)

Also, it might be advisable to set calendar-date-style (to 'european
in my case).

My setup for German is this, modify for Spanish as appropriate:

(setq calendar-date-style 'european
      calendar-month-name-array ["Januar" "Februar" "März" "April" "Mai" "Juni"
                                 "Juli" "August" "September" "Oktober" "November" "Dezember"]
      calendar-day-name-array ["Sonntag" "Montag" "Dienstag" "Mittwoch"
                               "Donnerstag" "Freitag" "Samstag"]
                               )

The "days" in "10 days-agenda", however, is hard-wired.

Thanks. That was what I was looking for.
