I was installing FC-5 yesterday,

And to add to this, many British people call it the "Queen's
English".


I would suggest a bugzilla entry to Mr. Murphy. As he appears to be an
Irishman, I think it would be forgivable if he didn't proposed that as
an alternate term.


I will have to look into that.

I learned the term Queens English from British Soldiers I was working with.

Just for some fun.
