I feel that this international version is very nice.
I have tried this beta version with additional japanese kanji messages. But
I have a problem.
In japan, we use usually the japanese kanji enhanced tcl. This tcl
understands all japanese kanji encodings and assumes that a 8 bits
character is a part of kanji character's multibyte. Above languages have 8
bits characters but these are not kanji. So, current international version
of pgaccess can not use on japanese tcl even if I include japanese messages.
I think that better solution is to separate a source file of pgaccess to
main code and message catalog files. And message catalog files should be
supplied for each of all supported languages. The pgaccess main code
includes only english messages as default language, and supports to load one
message catalogue file at startup.
I want so much to complate to translate messages to japanese.
How do you think.
Thank you.
