[GRASS-user] Language of installed manual

[Luigi Ponti]

Hello,

I could not find any further reply to this, and I just would like to 
mention that the problem (mixed languages in manual pages when 
installing wingrass from http://josef.fsv.cvut.cz/wingrass/grass64/) is 
gone as of WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r42329-1-Setup.exe.

Thanks and regards,

Luigi

Thanks Martin. Just to detail further my report, in case it is useful 
(sorry if redundant):

Installed last available WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r41105-1-Setup.exe of 19 February.

If I do for example:

r.colors --interface-description

what is get is:
                                               
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="CP1252"?>
<!DOCTYPE task SYSTEM "*grass*-interface.dtd">
<task name="r.colors">
    <description>
        Creates/modifies the color table associated with a raster map layer.
    </description>
    <keywords>
        raster, color table
    </keywords>
    <parameter name="map" type="string" required="no" multiple="no">
        <description>
            Nome della mappa raster in input
        </description>
        <keydesc>
            <item order="1">name</item>
        </keydesc>
        <gisprompt age="old" element="cell" prompt="raster" />
        <guisection>
            Required
        </guisection>
    </parameter>
    [...]
</task>

You can see there is English description plus some Italian text 
depending on how far the translator got. It is the same text I get in 
the g.parser GUI when invoking r.colors without arguments. I think this 
is fine since I have an Italian locale. However, the HTML manual page of 
r.colors is a partial *Czech* translation.

Kind regards,

Luigi
