translate source help file (English.ipf).

Then items in Help section should be identical as translated titles in new IPF/INF file.

After you added new Language support to &greename., I would appreciate if you send me new INI file,

:pt.:hp2."Classic" vs. Object Rexx:ehp2.
:pd.
&greename. can run under "Classic" or Object Rexx. If you have Object Rexx installed,
performance is significantly slower (loading time is about 3x longer, etc.)
:pt.:hp2.FastIni.dll:ehp2.
:pd.
FastIni.dll is library for fast access to OS/2 INI files. As &greename. stores all
information in DBFINFO.INI and Language INI file (settings, language support ...), it is recommended to use this file
(copy it to directory in LIBPATH statement in CONFIG.SYS, or keep it in dBase Info's directory).
&greename. can run without this library, but performance will be slower.
:pt.:hp2.Speed:ehp2.
:pd.
Loading time and operations depend on your computer's speed, RAM and size of DBF file.
For smaller files (less than 10000 records) speed is acceptable.
