[FLASH-USERS] Localizing

[Anshu Dubey]

Dear Gabriel,

There is no such interface in the code, but it would be easy to build. We
can include such
a function in the next release, and can send you the patch earlier if you
want. It seems
that you are using FLASH2 though, if you are just getting started with FLASH
I
would strongly recommend using FLASH3 or FLASH4, they are far more robust
and supported.
