Information about locale:  (READ CAREFULLY)

***  Monday, February 28, 1994

I've made a .ct file, also (and a working .cd file, too)

Oops.  I tried building a catalog from this file, and noticed that it was
missing a few things, and some strings were not right.

Don't use "\d" for a decimal notation.  This is 'E's way of noting it,
but it actually turns it into a %ld string.  So use these.

Next, don't use the \a strings.  You can use the apostrophes  '  string.

There were 3 missing strings, that I've added.  They dealt with APPICON,
KICK, and ABOUTMORE.

After I made these changes, I was able to create a working catalog.
Sorry for any problems this may have cause.  I just today learned how to
actually make a catalog, and was unable to test the above beforehand.

(Not bad, I suppose, for my first attempts.)

Lots of changes.  I *quickly* converted old catalogs into the new
positions and names.  But I did not change the strings!!!  Translators
should check EVERY line against my .cd/.ct file.  Maybe even start from
scratch?

I did recompile the converted catalogs, and all looks fine.  But...

If you wish for your catalog to be included in the Aminet release, send
me the files before April 20th.  This gives you over a week.

Remember to add your credits to the L_ABOUT string!  Just make sure to
keep the number of lines the same, and allow for 4 additional lines for
registration info!!!

Good luck.
