There are plenty of Makefile.am around, but I cannot find the one with the contents you are talking about. > You will need to rebuild the Makefile.in's and reconfigure (using aclocal, > automake, autoheader and autoconf). Dhu.... I'm not sure what you are talking about. More specific, please? :) > Or you can send the translation to me or Jeff (or this list) and we can > put it in for the next release :) Ha, way to easy. Besides I would like to test my translation first. It is really finnished (Norwegian), but I want to try things out before I send them to you. Also, may I use ' " '-signs in the translation? One last thing; I understand that bbappconf is the way to place programs at startup on specifig workspaces. Where may I find it? Thank you. -- Sebastian Stein
