Thank you you both for such a nice welcome...:) This encourages anyone
to
give a hand to a such nice project ;)

Anyway, I cannot get the export dialog box, I´ve got the stable
release...Could you give me any advice on where to look at?

Thanks for the compliment about my English.

By the way, any of you mentioned something about the translation into
Spanish
of the website, how should I contact with?

Many thanks for the hints

Miguel
