Re: [Libreoffice] translating german -> english

Hello Michael,

Does this script exist:  bin/find-german-comments ?
Where is it. For the moment I entered German word
in opengrok and got plenty filenames already.


yes, recompile is required. This weekend I noticed
that I modified one file too much: the compile failed :=)

Another thing of course: that I  found out that understanding
the German comments is not always easy. It is not about
the German itself but the real meaning of the comment.
Anyway ....

The last thing: I found "patch making"  instructions on the Libo site.
If there are better ones, I like to receive them.

Regards/M.f.G.

Luc
