Yes, this is how the RHEL documentation is translated, with separate XML files per language. Despite our geekish preference for translations all in one file, it is clear we need to make them separate files. foo-en.xml foo-it.xml foo-ru.xml foo-jp.xml ... Should we want to combine then in the future, I bet there is some way to do it in Perl.[1] - Karsten [1] Isn't this true of everything? -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Red Hat SELinux Guide http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/
