There lies a massive problem. The code will automatically use localised docs if 
it
can find them, but that requires that the entire (ie. pgAdmin, Slony and
PostgreSQL) docset is translated. That's not the real problem though - the real
issue is when we do a release of pgInstaller, we have perhaps a week to bring
everything into sync and get it out of the door. For the non-windows users, the
pgAdmin chm/hhp file *is* the documentation for the Windows version of
PostgreSQL.

I suppose we could only ship the English docs with pgInstaller, but that still
leaves a potential problem bringing everything into sync for pgAdmin-only
releases. What I think we perhaps need to look at is making the localised docs a
runtime-downloadable component, so that we can release them seperately and
make it clear to the user before they download what version of each set of docs
is available to them in the set.


Perhaps is it possible to ask the user at install time ? I mean, the
user installs pgAdmin software with the installer, the installer asks
him if he wants to get a localized help file. If the user agrees, the
installer shows him all languages available. When the user finally
choose his language, the installer downloads the files and installs
them.
