[Newbies] Using Local Date Settings

I am looking for information on how to get squeak to use the locale settings for dates. I have found the Locale classes, but I can't make sense of how to use it to set squeak wide settings either based on the OS or some parameter I can pass in.

As an example, if I use '05/10/2007' asDate, I get a Date object of '10 May 2007' rather than '5 October 2007'. I could code it myself, but surely someone has done this already.

I appreciate any help or documentation.

Thanks,

Jack
