I find it a bit long, too. I'm open to suggestions for a better name. The name should make it obvious to GNUmed first-timers that under this header they will find episodes which are not attached to a health issue but rather stand on their own. The term is easily and lossless-ly replace in the code and is, in any case, subject to gettext translation. Thus anyone really whishing to use a different name for it can edit their translation file. > A more important example is the label "in surgery" which is familiar to > those in Australia and the UK but will confuse users of GNUmed in Canada or > the United States where, in private solo or co-located practices, doctors > would refer to their workplace as "office" and in a group practice the > doctors may think of (and refer) to their workplace or clinic... or they > may may think of (refer to) it as their "practice". I see your point. Again, for one thing, one might edit their translation file and/or provide a translation to the database to change the string itself. The whole encounter type thing is database defined so it can be changed to whatever users need anyway. I added a configuration option for the default encounter type. What we still lack is frontend support for managing those types. > Would it be doable with little pain, to support this in Tools > > ConfigRegistry (which, in 0.2.8.2, seems the same as the plug-in Setup) Again, we are deprecating this plugin/tool in favour of more end-user oriented config handling.
