Again, it is possible they have made some speed improvements in more recent versions. Jay Treacy

No, dude, look again. index.wml doesn't have any subroutine definitions at all.

To get the translations correct, you > need to use slices. Feh. I hate slices. I just put a variable on the top of index.wml, which is translated, like so: <: # used to join "Install Manual _for_ i386", for instance $indirect_object_conjoiner = 'for'; :> No offense, but slice sucks. -- .Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.onShore.com/>

NEVER EVER make translators translate single words. This does NOT work. You should never assume that different languages have similar sentence construction rules. For example, Finnish does not have a word-for-word translation for the word "for". Its meaning is shown in the forms of the surrounding words. Yes, I *can* translate that variable, but the resulting Finnish is far from idiomatic then. Other languages may have more severe problems. (This is BTW what I tried to say in the boot-floppies bug, too.) -- %%% Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % http://www.iki.fi/gaia/ %%% "" (John Cage)

I'll be busy
Ok, people... I'm moving to a new job in a new city in a new state (same country, though). I'm not sure how much connectivity I'll have until I get settled. So, for the next week or two, I will be slow to respond and sorta (possibly) outta touch. -- Please cc all mailing list replies to me, also. = * http://benham.net/index.html<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <>< * * * ---* * Debian Developer, Debian Project Secretary, Debian Webmaster * * <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * * <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * = pgp1umXnTd3tH.pgp Description: PGP signature
