Indeed. I don't recall what considerations were made, but I think it was done before there was a localization. Perhaps for backward compatibility before we had check boxes. It was also based on Omni's methods. This was one of the various problems why I always thought localizations of BibDesk aren't really a good idea. > It might be best to just store that as an integer in future, and still allow > the old values for comparison...providing that could be done safely even when > the localization is disabled. Switching from French to English will never work, because the English version will never understand "Oui" and "Non".
