No. The route was this: - In an earlier msg I mentioned this as dxgettext limitation (since I ran into it) - In a later msg you said you got weary of dxgettext because of "problems" with it. - I replied that it was not a problem, but a limitation of the concept, and that your system had it too. I never asked you to have a solution for it. I don't see the particular advantage of your system over gettext anyway. > > > <-> utf8. > > > > What do you assume about the codepage of literals?

Source or binary. The source has a build requirement, is architecture dependent and generally more portable. Binary might be easier to only get the linkedin texts. Actually proof of concept might be worthwhile for that purpose in combination with gettext. OTOH, gettext alos translates stuff from resources (like forms) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
