Hi all, Just 3 (less or more stupid) remarks :
1. bash-2.01$ LANG=de ./test_i18n "White on black" "Reset and _Clear" msgid: White on black msgstr: Blanc sur noir msgid: Reset and _Clear msgstr: Reset and _Clear LANG=de is not enougth to override my LC_ALL=fr_FR setting... bash-2.01$ LC_ALL=de ./test_i18n "White on black" "Reset and _Clear" msgid: White on black msgstr: Wei� auf schwarz msgid: Reset and _Clear msgstr: Reset and _Clear 2. Maybe setting the english sentence as german sentance in the .po (if not already done) could fixe the pb (ie refresh it?) 3. debian-i18n should be cc'ed Bye, Mt.
