I think, option 1 is more useful for the end-user, because then he gets the applet presented in his native language. But maybe I am wrong. > So, I still do not understand what you are advocating. Nothing. I was arguing, that one single jar is the best solution for users, developers ans vendors.

Put all translations into one jar JmolApplet_i18n.jar :) Regards, Daniel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Jmol-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jmol-developers
