See the translate package. Defaults Deutsch->Englisch, but goes both ways. You can add words as you find stuff it doesn't have. There have also been a variety of commercial translation packages for dos. You might be able to use one of them under DOSEMU or something like that. I have one somewhere that cost $50 about 5 or 6 years ago. ciao, der.hans -- # [EMAIL PROTECTED] home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # When you are tired of choosing the lesser of two evils, # Vote Cthulhu for President!
