Res: File trashed by previous translator ?

[Andreas Köhler]

Hi Renato,

I doubt this word was meant to be Portuguese :-)

Quoting dictionary.com
prox·i·mo
–adverb
in, of, or during the next month: on the 10th proximo. Compare instant
(def. 11), ultimo. 

(Just as Derek wrote)

Yes, please send in your patch until the given date. That would be
great!

Have fun,
