There is another change that I would like to do. To have TRANSLITERATE_FILE_NAMES remain relevant and does not prevent corss-references to/from external manuals from working, I propose to add another variable to control the rule for external manuals, like TRANSLITERATE_EXTERNAL_FILE_NAMES. This would not be backward compatible, as the current situation would be obtained by setting both TRANSLITERATE_FILE_NAMES and TRANSLITERATE_EXTERNAL_FILE_NAMES instead of setting only TRANSLITERATE_FILE_NAMES explicitly, but it seems to me to be better. The idea is that TRANSLITERATE_FILE_NAMES could be set in general, such that the user can generate locally files with more readable names, but TRANSLITERATE_EXTERNAL_FILE_NAMES would only be set in the rare cases when the users want to have only transliterated file names for external links. What do you think? -- Pat
