You could just do this:
if (strncmp ("LanguageEncoding", _("LanguageEncoding"), \
strlen("LanguageEncoding")) == 0)
{
LanguageEncoding = "ISOLatin1";
}
else
{
LanguageEncoding = _("LanguageEncoding");
}
This has the benefit of being a distinctive string. After all, translating
"English", or "ISOLatin1" is not very intuitive. I think that if you were
alse to put some comment like
/* Specify translation encoding e.g. ISOLatin1 */ or
/* Specify language of translation */
it should be seen by xgettext and merged into the po file, to give a hint
to translators as to what is expected by way of translation. I have
added similar omments to genppd.c.
The `key' for translation should be unambiguous, and I would like to make
the above change, if you agree with it.
Another thing I found while testing is that there is an error in
src/cups/Makefile.am. genppd is run both when building, and *twice*
during make install. I can't see why.
all-local: $(INSTALL_DATA_LOCAL_DEPS) [build dependency]
install-data-local: $(INSTALL_DATA_LOCAL_DEPS) [install dependency]
A file ppd-stamp is created so that the ppd-stamp rule is only run
once, so I can't see why this occurs because ppd-stamp is not
deleted AFAICS.

Roger

Nope, I have the 5500 and it is definitely only 2-level (although some of the early docs indicated 3 levels, testing proved it was still only 2 levels (the third level produces no dot, which makes for "interesting" output...) I'm pretty sure the 1 is also 2-level, but I'll know for sure in another month or so. -- __ Michael Sweet, Easy Software Products [EMAIL PROTECTED] Printing Software for UNIX http://www.easysw.com ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I haven't done anything on this since I added support for the printer before; what we do here directly applies to the 5500 and 1, since they share the same (2-level) support and inks. Hmm.

Most of the Canon models need testing and eventually some fine-tuning. The BJC6x00 models should be alright, but the others' state I cannot estimate.
