Hello Eduardo,

in all kernels, you can have
  country=49 (german)

to have date format DD-MM-YYYY(+currency, yes/no,...); that's why I
introduced it (hardcoded for 10+ country's) a while ago.

BTW: I'm not sure, if translated yes/no's make much sense at all, unless
the program (int24 handler, command,...) is translated as well, and
then the yes/no should be translated at that stage.
because

  country=49,858,c:\country.sys

would lead to a yes/no respecting format program to ask

  formatting C:
  this will overwrite all data on C:
  are you really sure you want to continue ?

expecting a 'J' (german JA) as answer.
IMO, this doesn't make much sense.

uppercase tables for different codepages are much more relevant,
though.
