Could someone provide the French translations too, please. Any other
languages? American, perhaps ;)

Im aware of the the method of closing windows, applying to the button frame
for room to open a button-sized window, etc. I just wondered if there was a
standard way of hiding active windows like the BUTTON_SLEEP utility

I have no idea. In Thierry's ACP one configuration item asks you to supply
the name for "system asleep". Perhaps its local to ACP.

Since information is so sparse perhaps you could supply the rest of the
German list. Are the S*Basic keyword names also affected, ie its not
BT_SCHLAF, I hope?
