So if you have CVS access, you can commit them.

I think that if the .chm manual is updated, most languages should be updated, otherwise one of the less requested languages will possibly never be updated. I can update them all once a month or so, as it costs lost of time. It's a pity that these is no help compiler for Unix, as this would certainly made building them automatically much easier, just like the building of the html files out of the xsl source.

I've never had any problems downloading them with Netscape. regards, Derick Rethans --------------------------------------------------------------------- PHP: Scripting the Web - www.php.net - derick@php.net SRM: Site Resource Manager - www.vl-srm.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------
