JA> Hello Vandor,
Arrgh, Vandor is my family name. :) We Hungarians put family names
first... And it's hard to decide which order to use. I think I'll
change it to the international order because I'm in contact with more
foreigners than fellow Hungarians right now :) Sorry for being silly

Yes, I have found this thing, although I did it by clicking it in the
menus (as all good lamers do :) But I'm the lazy lamer type, and I was
looking for something *automatic*.
