Sorry!. I didn't see (now I have downloaded the gnumed from cvs) I think 
it's the right way.

I don't think so, I believe it is because the original gettext from C is 
_(), for the preprocesor before compiling.
The Python 'gettext' module imitate original Gnu gettext, so the _ 
function is for try to be same 'C'

Other thing....

some days ago, I sended to the list one numeric control for testing and 
see the utility for Gnumed project...
What about it...? Have any body try it?. I would be noticed about it 
(and the squeleton of the wxDateEntry - "visual aspect")

For now, I'm working in wxDateEntry parser... ;) I believe that i'm in 
the right way... there are a lot of conditioins to interpretate 
(ambiguous some of them...)
