Hello hello Arturas good morning all hello reinhard ra3vat, Arturas: can you test the latest CVS a bit, i'v introduced "textEncoding" into [common] in gnue.conf instead of formFontEncoding if you have time i'm busy, will do at the evening ok, thanks :) btami: having exams, i'll do what i can ok, thanks too :) :) #gnuenterprise helpful as always it was a good round :) ariel (~ariel@ppp-217-133-242-250.dialup.tiscali.it) joined #gnuenterprise. btami: it refused to work (tried to hit me with errors and tracebacks) with default textEncoding value (iso8859-1), but when i changed it to my native encoding (iso8859-13) it worked just fine Arturas, thanks i think some more error checking is needed in GBaseApp.py todo: if encoding of *.po is different from default (iso8859-1) msg to user to change textEncoding in gnue.conf encoding in .po is separate thing my changes was done for that to have one .po file to two platform with different default encoding (and encoding in gnue.conf) but GBaseApp doesn't check if textEncoding _conflicts_ to *.po as iso8859-1 conflict to both iso8859-2/cp1250 s/to/with so the needed check is not "==" but "is conflicts" agreed with that hmm ajmitch?

Action: revDeke hasnt touched windows for ever Action: revDeke thought about telling him to put in disk #1 from debian set and just answer the questions ;) what version of windows? win98 and this is a win98 rescue disk? has he tried booting that win98 rescue disk and doing sys C: ? ok let me get him on the phone you have a minute? sure just got home he is not computer user (btw, this is all from distant memory :) so asking him what kind of 'disk' it is will yield 'cdrom' Action: revDeke dials phone..... so this was the Win98 install cd, booted into dos?
