      * Support for English, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Italian, Spanish and French.

      * Now to force the use of a language it's just needed to create a file named
    		lang.conf with this content:
    					user.language=<your_language>
    					user.country=<your_country>
    	    Save this file on GFP Home. Ex.: C:\GFP\lang.conf
    	    This exemple show how to force the use of English:
    					user.language=en
    					user.country=US

    		so the New button clear all fields and set the Save button to enable; and the user lost
