English.

possibilités", et en liste quatre.
The word "Nom" in the English should be "Name". I
'll provide Unix screenshots of the save dialog box.
Furling should be explained in French ("furl" est un terme nautique qui veut
dire réduire une voile à une masse plié sur le boom).
Basics2: (called basis2 in French) The icons somehow got lost. The path
"images/" is missing from the URL.
