4 mine %: a - string id in byte form
5 t - string len (long aligned) in byte form - move both to %n[xdo]!
6 z - fill with zeros up to length t
11 1. Add SAS/C support. I mainly mean using SAS messager. Would be handy a lot.
13 --> Do we really want to keep support for SAS/C?
16 2. Add trailing elipses check (...) in #?.cd and #?.ct (as CatComp does)
18 WARNING: original string for token '%s' had a trailing ellipsis (...)
24 3. Seems FlexCat read "\n\Polska wersja" but wrote "\npolska wersja"?
26 --> To be investigated.

31 I already reported a problem with reading large (e.g. bit 31 set, also
32 locale prototype says ULONG is accepted) string_ids with FlexCat
33 earlier today (not translated). As FlexCat reports identical ids for
34 every such large number I guess it uses atol() and gets 0 :-(
36 I thought I could work around the bug by using hexadecimal numbers
37 introduced by $ as mentioned in CatComp.doc. However it turns out
38 that FlexCat does not recognize $, only 0x is recognized since 1.9:
39 franc,ais.cd, Zeile 11; Warnung: Erwartete MinLen (Zeichen '/').
40 I recommend parsing $ for compatibility with CatComp.

47 In the end I'd like to make a suggestion to improve
48 FlexCat tool. After updating an old .ct file by a new
49 one (which is great function itself) would be handy
50 to have even changed strings marked (just like these

76 Here are some suggestions/bugs in flexcat 1.9
78 SUGG: User defineable way to describe non-ascii chars like CR LF BEEP
79 NULL etc. to make flexcat more programming-language
80 independent. (e.g. '0A'x in Arexx) [yeah, I'm mad enough to
81 localise my ARexx scripts ;-) ]
83 NICE: I wrote a little script file to create catalogs/sources more
84 easyly. Add it or delete it :)))
86 --> To be considered for a future release...
