You can't find out whether bindtextdomain failed or not. The only way to get the information whether a catalog is available in a path or not is to find the files yourself and then register them with the right path. :( Welcome to the nice world of gettext. Anyway, I'd really like to leave the decision where to install a catalog to the plugin. Considering that most of the external plugins will get their own configure script it would be simple to find a convinient place for the catalog, assign it to a #define and use this define in the sourcecode of the plugin. -- Servus, Daniel
