A good programmer is always annoyed by redundent work. combine the code into one routine and call it from different places, possibly with different parameters. But I didn't really notice this one until my translating friends pointed it out to me. We have some sample ebrc config files in the doc directory, which are installed in /usr/share/doc/edbrowse, and referenced from the users guide, then, we have sample ebrc files that are created if you bring up edbrowse and have no config file in your home directory. These are similar but not identical. My translating friends say, "I just did this, and now I'm translating almost the same thing again?" What should we do here? Karl Dahlke
