You're obviously more familiar with what happens with non-English users than I
am, so we'll use your recommendations and not worry about option-letters or
documentation, at least for now. But I will still need to decide on how to
compile and distribute things (separate executables, a single executable with
several language files, a single file with all the languages already included,
automatic detection of languages and keyboard layouts and code pages, etc.). I
do already have some experience with other languages (with my SCANCODE
program), but it's been a long time since I've messed with that and will need
to refresh my brain. Since PRTSCR is such a small program, I think it might be
easiest to just have one compiled executable with the various languages built
into it. It certainly makes it easier that trying to keep track of a bunch of
language files and making sure you have the correct version of the language
file. It makes the executable itself bigger, but it shouldn't increase the
size of the TSR in memory which is far more important to me than the executable
size. For larger programs,though, that may not be the best way to handle it.
I'll get back in touch. Also, keep in mind that, like you, I don't have a lot
of time to work on these things, so don't expect it to happen very quickly.
Thanks again for volunteering!
