Hi, I tried to create a German FreeCOM 0.82pl3 XMS-Swap and had
to find that somebody had saved german.lng in iso-8859-1 instead
of actually using codepage 858. I could have used SETEDIT.sf.net
to fix that, but even easier was:

unix2dos german.lng

(which I ran in Linux and which is an alias to
alias unix2dos='recode lat1..ibmpc'
... but you can probably use TRCH or a Windows tool just as well!)

After that, I added translations for the 5 new strings in 0.82pl3
and now you can download the result (binary and .lng file, nothing
else) from

http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/freecom-0.82pl3-deutsch.zip

Please take the german.lng file and update the FreeCOM dowload
area (there is a special localization zip with normal and xms-swap
raw binaries, fixstrs exe to merge default language and translation
.lng files, documentation and of course the .lng files for: Dutch,
English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese/Brazilian, Russian,
Serbian, Spanish, Swedish, Serbian (Yu437) - but in various quality!
ITALIAN is rudimentary, FRENCH pretty outdated as well, others are
more or less recent.)!

After this has been done, I would like to take my file offline
again. If you want to offer a FreeCOM binary in German language
online: Fine, but please create a proper zip with the same contents
as the English binary zip, not only the pure undocumented .com file.

Let me know when I can take my file offline again. Thanks!

Eric.
