Does Geos exist in any other language versions than English?
NewDeal Office 98 was available in English and French versions. A German version is almost done and a Spanish version is expected soon. Each of these versions comes with drivers for other language keyboards, so if you can speak one of these languages, you can probably use the software with little difficulty. The Geos found in the Nokia 9000/9110 cellphones supports more European languages. The German version of Breadbox Ensemble is in final review and a French and Spanish version are in progress. More recently, a French support group for Geos has gone on-line. Alain Carriere has started GeoSphere, a virtual club for Francophones (the site is in French only). He has another website, The Sanctuary of the Stars, that was created with the Geos HTML editor WebBox. Unfortunately, both are of this writing off-line.
GEOS 2.01 is available in 4 versions: American, Australian/UK, Finnish, German, and Spanish. Each of these versions comes with drivers for other language keyboards, so if you can speak one of these languages, you can probably use the software. Geoffrey Tobin (g.tobin+@ee.latrobe.edu.au) writes: Actually, Australia uses US keyboards, and our currency is also called the `dollar.’ Australia is similar to the UK in our spelling system, though Americanisms such as `color’ (vs. `colour’) are gradually prevailing. So I would guess that the only reason for Geoworks to group Australia and the UK would be for the purpose of spell-check software.
