Re: Translated functions are feasible (was: Re: Translate gnumeric functions)

In French, probably not, but it is theoretically possible anyway, so it
must be addressed. Using fr_xxxx does not seem a good idea. In french,
functions have the same name in excel and OoCalc, it should be the same
in gnumeric. The best solution is to use only the localized version,
IMHO.
