[gcompris-devel] XML and accents

[Bruno Coudoin]

I agree that it is usefull to boards code to have this handled in
gcompris core. I wanted to do it by the time I found the way to handle
that but you're faster than me ;)
You can include your code in the cvs.

On a similar topic, I have a problem with the language selection. It
happens that I did not find a way to dinamycally change the locale
except for what we take from the xml files. 
In one word, I can't have gettext change its locale dynamically.
If somebody has an idea ..

Bruno.
