Hi Jim,
Thanks for your help. I managed to build the Bitextor program successfully.
Actually the patch is not included in the release downloadable from
Sourceforge, but the code in the SVN repository has the patch.
Is Bitextor suitable to be run on multi-lingual news websites (like BBC)? I
want to try it on this Indonesian news website (www.antaranews.com), which
also has an English version (www.antaranews.com/en).
Regards,
Raymond
