Maxima i18n



hello vadim,

thanks so much for your work on i18n.

i was able to make a successful build after upgrading
automake and autoconf to 1.9.6 and 2.59 respectively.
(build failed with automake 1.7.something; i don't know
the old autoconf version.)

the latin-1 docs (es & pt, info & html) look good. hurray!

i can't figure out how to view the utf-8 docs --
i set LANG=pt_BR.UTF-8 and run maxima / clisp in konsole,
but special characters are goofed up.
how is UTF-8 supposed to work?

thanks a lot to everyone working on i18n
(jorge, mario, & vadim, in alphabetical order).
it is truly a herculean labor, and the results are terrific.

best,
robert
