Hi.

I have a question concerning the way elm treats the use of the .localsig
file instead of the .sig file:
The point why I ask is the following:
It seems that elm only uses the .local file if the other person uses the
same machine.
But I would like to have elm using the .local file for user difineable
(is this mispelled?) machines. I.e. I can define - let's say 20 - hosts,
where elm uses the .localfile, even if those hosts are NOT in the same
net... 

I would appreciate this feature because I am German and I have a German
as well as an English .sig file. Now I would like to use the German .sig
file for a number of servers I communicate with, even though they might
be in Swizerland, or so...

Perhaps anyone could help me...anyhow thanks a whole lot...

		I hope you've got me, Gerhard.

PS: Sorry for my English..
