-
- The files in the language directory contain the text files which set up the
- accents.
-
- >French: The accents are all the small letter ones, as capitals do not need
- accents.
-
- >German: All the necessary accents, plus the division sign which I have used
- as an alternative for the line with an umlaut in plurals, eg:
-
- der Bahnhof (÷e) (where the plural is die Bahnhöfe). See supplied files.
-
- >Latin: Not a complicated file - there aren't any accents. The file is just
- there to facilitate the loading of Latin vocab files.
-
- >Italian: I have put in the accents I think are needed, upper + lower case;
- no promises though - I don't speak very good Italian (I think that translates
- Non parlo bene l'italiano!).

- Creating a new language (!!)
- ****************************
-
- To set up a new language:
-
- 1> Load Edit and click on the icon.
- 2> Type the full name of the language and press RETURN.
- 3> Enter the accents in order in which you want them stored (ie. F1 first)
- followed by RETURN. Hint: Use Chars/NewChars/NewChars2/ImpChars (all PD
- programs) to aid entering.
- 4> Save it with a filename <10 chars in the Language directory.
- 5> Create a directory within the 'Vocab' directory with a suitable name.
- Check your User Guide if you are unsure how to do this. Registered
- users can write to me for help.
