                                CatEdit 1.2
                               =============

One  of  the  major  updates  of Workbench 2.1 was it's ability to run the
Workbench or any other program (that is localized) in different languages.
This  way,  even  if  a  program isn't translated in your native language,
there is always a language that you understand.

Now  there  is  CatEdit,  a program that allows you to translate localized
programs in any language that the Amiga supports.

With CatEdit it is also possible to remove those little (or big) errors in
the  translation of a program or translate strings into other strings that
you prefer. You can even change Workbench strings.

Unlike  the Commodore CatComp program, you don't need the original catalog
description  to translate a catalog, all you need is a catalog (it doesn't
matter  which language, as long as you can understand it). But CatEdit can
also read catalog descriptions, it can even write catalog descriptions.


Major changes in release 1.2

-NEW FEATURE: `Snoop Catalog', patches the locale.library to snoop the
 builtin strings from progams.
-Added  `New'  menu-item,  suggested  by  Antonio  J.  Gomez.  CatEdit
 signalled  string-names  containing  lowercase characters as invalid.
 Reported by Adam Sjoegren.
-The catalog description/translation parser has been improved.
-`Smarter' installation script.
