The question is actually changing the language of dia on a Windows 7
OS in English

1) Dia is translated into many languages including Italian. It uses
the common gettext method and po files for this. I noticed that the
Italian po file seems quite old and it's ISO-8859-1 whereas most
others have already moved to UTF-8.

2) I'm not really sure how Dia works on specifically on Windows so
maybe some Windows expert can fill in the gaps. But I would suspect
that GTK on Windows is ported in a way to understand the current
user's regional settings and this should get Dia to work automagically
in the language that the OS is in. In other words if your Windows is
in Italian then most probably your Dia will show up in Italian as
well.

So to answer your question it may be as simple as setting your
regional settings in Windows to Italian and that should get Dia to
work in Italian. Maybe there is a way to keep your Windows in English
and to set some environment variables before launching Dia to get it
to display in Italian. This means that the language variable in your
OS has to be something like it_IT.ISO8859-1

The locale must be available and the underlying C library must see it.

As to how easy or hard is to get your Windows to work in Italian you
have to check with Microsoft.
