Well, what I meant was that Martin apparently did find a way to fix it 
-- that is what my post was about: the manual seems OK now -- no more 
Czech language in the manual pages. I haven't actually checked all the 
man pages, but the test pages I had reported as having mixed language 
(e.g. r.colors) now show 100% in English.

Thanks and regards,

Luigi
