OK. New thread. I think it's simply impractical to be in more than one locale at a time for messages. For one thing, calls to the _() and gettext() functions would have to be postponed until well after the point they're called now, so that we could call them once for each locale we're in. So I'd think that SET OLANG would change the language for all messages, regardless of where they're going. -- Ben Pfaff email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://benpfaff.org _______________________________________________ pspp-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-dev
