Hmm. I get your point. didn't think of that. And unfortunately the problem will also be in Currency Converter because a currency can be used in several countries: http://www.iso.org/iso/support/faqs/faqs_widely_used_standards/widely_used_standards_other/currency_codes/currency_codes_list-1.htm And then there are both alpha-2 and alpha-3 codes :-/ http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ascii_8bits.html Guess I'll better drop they eye-candy. Just thought it would look cool :-) -- Best Regards / Med venlig hilsen Thomas Olsen _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
