Very good, wht36. Just let me know if it's possible to do it with ANSI language file. Because language files are not Unicode.

It is possible to display double-byte character sets like Chinese, but I think character counting (?strlen) is a problem because there are often trailing English letters after the Chinese words and my theory is that the Chinese words are not properly nul terminated in memory. I tried using ANSI code page 950 and UTF code page 65001 but still the same problem, presumably because the UTF is using 3 bytes to represent 1 single Chinese character.

I tried enclosing the words in quotes as well as terminating the Chinese words with <br>, 0x00, 0x0D, 0xFF etc but they don't work.

Ok, create a Unicode file. Just Unicode, UTF8. And set codepage to Unicode.
Current version will not support it but I will fix this in the next one.

Hello.

Is an Italian translation needed? :)

EDIT: Yes, it is needed. I just downloaded last versione and there is no italian. If I will do this translation, I wil not need to buy it, right? Or what? Do I receive the registration code? Anyway, I'm working.

I'm glad I can help. This software is just Awesome. Probably tomorrow I will finish the work, but where should I send it? What e-mail? I read support, which one?

EDIT: Nevermind, it was included in the file. Sent @ contact@mars-soft.net

Please download the latest version of Mars Notebook 2.1 from HERE.
It already includes Italian and Cinese BIG5 languages. Please check if everything is correct.
And from now all language files are Unicode. UTF-8

Hi, please check email. Updated big5 version to "fix" text alignment in registration info. Otherwise there are no other problems that I know of.

Hallo, I sent Czech translation on Jul 26 but without any answer or confirmation. Has it been delivered successfully? Topics was approved quickly.

Hey mars!
It's been a long time, a question: can you resend me the activation code? Preferably to this mail:

cronoloop (AT) gmail.com

I forgot how awesome this software was, I literally used it for everything back in the days
Thank you and sorry
