Hi Nicola,

I am = Italian too and I understood both your letters ;)
I was also = looking into the code of educazionik, and there is a lot of = Italians words as variables. I do not know  if that could be a = little problem for   other programmers that want to step in.
There are also the configuration files: they are text file and I = guess they need to have a defined structure for the program to work. It = would be good to have XML files where each field is named in the file = itself. I guessyou need an editor to enable the author of configuration = files to be able to do their own exercise. Also I see that all the = string that the GUI shows are also in Italian, but the code  does = not allow for translations. 
How do you think you go  about these = problems?

Cheers
