Not translating the on disk folder will result in a strange behavior for users of both gnome and non-gnome applications. For those users the folder name would be in english in one application and in their native language in another application (but still being the same folder). Using gconf-keys and translating the on disk folder instead solves this problem. The downside is that non gnome applications might not then be aware that the folder is special, but at least it will display it right. //Snaggen _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
