I have only had one response to my article (Message-ID 9005231530.
AA04037@uk.ac.oxford.prg.boothp1) about my problems with translations in
composite widgets and that didn't work. 8*(

To clarify the situation...

If I have an application that does an `#override' of the translations for a
child of a composite widget then any `#override' that I have from my
.Xdefaults are completely ignored.  The same entries work for a simple
widget, though.

It would appear to be the case that, for a child of a composite widget, you
can either setup translations from the applications fallback_resources or
you can have translations in your .Xdefaults but not both!

Does anyone know if this is the case or if there is something I can
set/unset to get around this problem?

E-mail or post, but _please_ respond if you know what's happening here.

Many thanks in advance...

Mark
