I agree. I did this patch too, but I thought it might not be a good idea to
send it.

The line was there before. It wasn't me: Don't blame me.
What about en_GB.po? Once someone complained in the list about it.
...and what about OK and Ok? How do "you" spell it?
(I'm actually Australian but I've lived in Spain since I was 4 :)
English humor, you know!
You made no changes in setup.c so the original message and the "//"
stay there. Is this the final solution?
Keep in mind when changing charsets.c that the load_codepages_list() has two
"return" (...) and that the message is now displayed both when the file is
missing and when there are no codepages (<= 0).
Just in case it's of any use here's the second patch I made. Someone could
argue not to place GUI in charsets.c and this was the second reason no to
post it yesterday.
