Good idea. I have done it with hex editor but there we need more space for our words. That might be a good way.

Did you just edit in hex and upload to FX? File .dnl need or not checksum?

Somebody need to test what happens when the contents of the FGS.DNL file is patched (edited). Of course the last four bytes of the file should contain a valid CRC-32 checksum of the changed data. I would start with changing the update-progress-messages.

As all the text messages the radio can display reside in this fgs.dnl file, we can assume that the OMAP application only sends message-IDs to the graphicsboard instead of full text messages or rendered graphics.

German language usually has long words. Isn't it good enough?
