Thanks Pete, I didn't see your editor now, but early version was seeming without foreign languages support. Then, there are 3 different Russian encodings for EU - DOS Russian, WIN Russian and NIX Russian. Then, to understand other Russian names, not only key words and built-in routines, interpreters must have the unlimited alphabet -- 128 -- 255 chars for names. I have such interpreters just now, but they have no translators to C, binding and other RDS's heavy armament. So, I ask Rob for these features. And these features are useful, I am sure now. I have thanks from my users just for translated EU docs and for unlimited alphabet. Regards, Igor Kachan kinz at peterlink.ru
