Hi Blair,

I guess it would be good for Bernd to suggest how he would manage
all
these executables which would end up with the same names in the
distributions but would obviously need different paths/names at
compile time and when he gets them from me/other developers.
I personally feel that it's best to use kitten for translation, as
it
is much easier to distribute only one binary. Also, a distro with
many binaries for many languages would be much larger than a distro
with only one binary for each utility.
I get the impression that Bernd wants to provide separate
distributions for different languages. They, then, would be smaller
than a distribution with one EXE file and a bunch of NLS files per
program, and even smaller than a distribution with one EXE file and
only one NLS file per program. I guess if you are trying to fit
things onto a single floppy you might like to avoid having to have one
or more NLS files on there too. I wouldn't know as I never have and
probably never will need to do that, so I can only imagine that it's a
bit annoying when your language is not the default :)
Regards,
David
