I found my post on GWN and saw Bo Ørsted Andresen's reply there, that reply never came to my box, I don't know why. Anyway, thanks Bo, it's working perfectly now by setting something like: app-office/openoffice linguas_en -linguas_es www-client/mozilla-firefox linguas_en -linguas_es mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird linguas_en -linguas_es BTW, if someone gets curious about why I'll want to do something like this, I'll explain: I get very annoyed by the translation teams. They not only translate menus, which is ok, but also hotkeys! So if you're accustomed to use english version of openoffice, the day you switch to spanish version you're doomed, you have to learn everything from scratch because they screwed hotkeys. I don't know why they do that. Maybe they will reply that one associates function names with hotkey combination so ctrl-o for english "open" and ctrl-a for spanish "abrir". But I think that given the ammount of possible bindings is just a waste of time. In the end one just learn the bindings and don't care about if it has something to do with the function name. Please drop that policy. Get programs translated but left hotkeys alone in the name of portability. (portability of my knowledge). -- Fernando Canizo - http://muriandre.homelinux.org/~conan/ -- [email protected] mailing list
