Hi Antti – I just tried changing my Mac’s default language to Finnish (Suomi) then restarted it, opened Livecode (several versions up to 8.0.2) and typed “put the long system date” into the message box. All returned an English style date (Wednesday, 7 September 2016) even though the date in the menubar clock was in Finnish. So, it’s not just you.
