Hi all,

it looks like mathematics teacher are getting more and more interested
in GraphThing, which is confirmed by two of them contacting me via email
to know how to set the language when running under Windows. I had a
quick look at the website but nothing specific was mentioned. Should I
told them to use environment variable too? (IIRC there are some
mechanisms to perform that under this OS, but I'm really unsure since I
haven't any of them.)


I had a French teacher contact me recently, and I pointed them towards this:
   http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;310519&sd=tech

I suggested setting LANGUAGE to 'fr' (or whatever language string is
appropriate). Like you, I haven't used any "official" Windows
mechanism for internationalisation, and, in particular, the
environment variable method is the only one GraphThing uses at the
moment.

BTW, is there someone to take care of the Windows port and keep on
upgrading it to newer versions of GraphThing?


I try to when I can; I'll try to get 1.3.1 together soon, and upload
it with a Windows binary.


Dave.
