i'm using string override: http://drupal.org/project/stringoverrides - so for example, i'm using it to change the text "add new comment" to "respond" (and 'comments' to 'responses') - it's very handy!

however it sounds like this is doing a few similar things, as well as providing advanced option placement controls...

are these two modules candidates for a potential merger of sorts? i'm confused...testing both out now on d6.1

I actually wasn't familiar with stringoverrides. Sounds kind of cool. Yes, it might in fact be good to put these to modules together. They should basically play nice together. I'm not pushing all the text through t(). This module is primarily geared at forms. You can add markup to a form, you can alter the desription fields as well. A lot of times these aren't put through t() because we want to be able to add markup links, etc.

This module also let's you change the weights/order of functions on a form.

Anyway, I'm open to merging but wil need talk more with the maintainers, it may be that they'd rather have that be different since there isn't too much overlap.

i hear you - actually put in a request over there for them to look at your module and how it displays the continuous "edit" item when a view of form elements is enabled - very handy stuff. between the two of these modules, a user can pretty much change any text on the site...
