I've finally got something that works, with minor glitches :
- the colorbox behind "Want to know more?" is a bit too small
compared to the others
- the red squares and triangles are a bit too small too
- the whole thing is a little too much on the right (off by 1 cm
approx.)
Otherwise, all translations work with the attached diff ; the result
looks quite good appart from what I mentioned above.
I'll try to integrate this into the Makefile, and I'll see if I can
fix the few glitches.
JB.
