Hi,
I speak French, and I say, i'm impress with the automatic
translation!
Margie, you're right, "Vois" is a typo, it should be "Vous". "endroi" too is
a typo, it's should be "endroit".
so, "Vous devez choisir la ligne avant de pointer l'endroit ou separer!"
translate "You must choose the line before pointing where to split"
And "Pas fin pline!" translate "No pline end" pline being polyline. The rest
is perfect!
I must say that the syntax in french is not terrible...
Bonne journ�e!

I don't speak French either, but I thought it would be fun to see what the
web-based translators have to say: Turns out that these three offer
precisely the same translation.

* You must choose a line!
* The point too is far from the line! Point nearer!
* See must choose the line before pointing the endroi or
separer!
* Not fine pline!
(I'll bet the "Vois" is a French typo!)(?)
Now for translating "l'endroi" and "separer":
http://dir.lycos.com/Reference/Dictionaries/Foreign_Languages/
doesn't offer any French Dictionaries, and
http://humanities.uchicago.edu/forms_unrest/FR-ENG.html
doesn't have these words in their dictionary.
