Hello,

If I create a Hollywood program which utilizes system library's locale functions and create executables for Windows and Mac OS X, do the localization work under Windows and OS X?

No, under Mac & Win the locale functions will always fall back to English.

I don't even know if it could be implemented to support Amiga catalogs under Mac & Win because I'm not familiar with the locale APIs under these systems.

So if you need different languages under Mac & Win the best idea would be to implement it on your own without using Hollywood's OpenCatalog() etc. as these functions are Amiga specific.

Ok, thanks!
