- Description:
-
- Acorn supports multilingual progamming by the MSGTRANS module. Quite a few
- programmes use it for the messages of their programs. There are even several
- (british) programs having messages in other languages than English (mainly
- in German). Despite this I know of only one application (except those using
- ResFind) adapting to the configured language automatically - Impression. For
- the end user this can't be considered the way to go since he or she has to
- do some work to activate the messages in the right language - even if the
- language is supported. Here ResFind comes in. It tries to activate the
- language fitting best. ResFind certainly isn't clairvoyant but on a
- reasonably configured computer it should work just fine.
