Hi Allin, Jack and Sven, I'm trying to complete gretl's french translation and from time to time I compile the MO file and test it in "real-life situations". Sometimes I set the language on "Automatic" french being my OS X language and sometimes simply in "French". Of course, in both cases everything appears in french. I estimate a MCO model (not a meaningful one actually but just for the sake of testing) and then check the "Analysis -> Forecast" Menu... and here things mix up. Gretl pops up with a warning window ("There are no observations available for forecasting out of sample....") whose message is: 1) in english, if language is set on "French"; 2) in albanian, if language is set on "Automatic"; Besides, I'm also working on an albanian translation but as I reported some days ago, my OS X doesn't support the sq_locale (didn't find a way to fix it yet). Interestingly, though the sq_locale doesn't work, the message still uses the sq_locale. I deleted the sq_locale directory from gretl to see how this may impact the behaviour on 2): it changed now in english. Needless to say, that the message is actually translated into french so apparently there's no reason why gretl uses english or albanian instead. I tried on many time series datasets but still got the same result. Best, Artur
