Hi,

Thanks for the explanation — it clarifies the behavior of |_()|.

I understand now that the argument is always treated as an ASCII key. I 
still find it surprising that this means a program cannot be written in 
Italian first and then translated to English. It seems that with 
wxWidgets, multi-language programs must always start with English strings.

Claudio.
