Not exactly a crunching question but can I delete all these superfluous language folders in my BOINC program folder? EG: "bg, ca, cs..." Pete |

> Sure there is only the language-File for the xx country > Don't delete : projects; (CVS); slots !!! Cool. So I can blame you if it blows up :)) In case anyone else wants to reduce wasted folders, I have deleted (moved to temporary folder) the following folders: "bg", "ca", "cs", "da", "de", "el", "eo", "es", "et", "fi", "fr", "gd", "gl", "he", "hr", "it", "ja", "ko", "nl", "no", "pl", "pt", "pt-br", "ru", "sk", "sr", "sv", "th", "tr", "zh-cn" (Leaving the folders: "CVS", "misc", "projects", "slots" intact.) I am using English. Have closed and restarted BOINC after the delete (move) and have seen no problems at all. Pete |

> Why not CVS? I had delete it and all is running fine. I wondered this as it is empty but sometimes some software does not like looking for a folder that is no longer there when it may require it in the future. I suspect "English" is native to the app so maybe if others use a none english language the folder CVS is used? don't know. Pete |

Hi Pete CVS is the Concurrent Versions System, the dominant open-source network-transparent version control system. CVS is useful for everyone from individual developers to large, distributed teams: Its client-server access method lets developers access the latest code from anywhere there's an Internet connection. Its unreserved check-out model to version control avoids artificial conflicts common with the exclusive check-out model. Its client tools are available on most platforms This previous info and more : @https://www.cvshome.org/ Greetz "The FUTURE is only a PARTICLE away from the PRESENT and the PAST." |

The language folders are not needed. If you want to use a language other than english you have to copy the language.ini from the folder into your boinc-dir. The only Folders needed are "projects" and "slots". If you want to have the latest language.ini go to boinc.dk BOINC Doc | Team-Site | BOINC-Podcast |
