This can be used in documents of Brazilian government. But in programming tools, where the language is technical, these terms are not used in caption of controls or menus. See what Google, NetBeans, Eclipse, Notepad++, Visual Studio and other tools use. Only technical words in ALL menus/controls/dialogs. -- Silvio Clécio =============================================== Blog - <silvioprog.com.br> Twitter - <twitter.com/silvioprog> Facebook - <facebook.com/silvioprog> LazSolutions - <code.google.com/p/lazsolutions> Lazarus-BR - <groups.google.com.br/group/lazarus-br?hl=pt-BR> =============================================== * Conheça nosso canal IRC sobre Lazarus: #lazarus-br * =============================================== -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
