Yes - I mentioned earlier here and on IRC that the Brazilian Portuguese
translation leaves a lot of room for improvement.

My guess is that your Windows box is configured in Portuguese (I
remember seeing that at some point) while your Mac is configured in
English? Or this is one of the odd issues where the locale name on the
Mac is different...

It should start in the language in which your OS is configured.

Good

The UI looks terrible on Mac and ok on Windows, if you ask me. The
current Qt UI is a 100x improvement on Mac (I'm not so clear about the
look I want on Windows, I guess).

There are lots of trivial samples included with the sources under
dives/test*.xml

Also some non-Subsurface files to try and import.

I can send you a much more detailed sample file as well.

That's the problem. The software wants to directly connect to the
internet, I bet. I don't think we enabled proxy support (as 99% of our
users will simply connect from a public hotspot on a dive trip or their
home network).
