Hi Mark, welcome to the forum.

That's a very nice proposition, thank you very much. I was planning on doing it sooner or later, but I'm missing the time to do it. I hope someone else offers the same for other langs.

Let me just give you some advice:

The translation doesn't have to be literal, but it's very important that the length of the strings don't vary much from the original.

e.g if you translate Kill all with this path (in the process manager) to Terminer tous avec ce répertoire the french string won't fit the available space for it and only Terminer tous avec would be shown.

For the tooltips, there's no prob, though.
One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.

Fred
