I want to do a global change of the "Read More" links; what you get when you create an article and click the "Read More" button for the intro breaks.
I am not looking to manually edit the HTML in the article itself. Asking a client to learn HTML and remember to change this every time they create an article will not go over well.
Somewhere there is code that defines when this page is created, to use a specific class and specific text. I am looking for that code to change the class and the text used. Where can I find that?

The CSS class is .readon
The text is in language/english.php and is defined next to _READ_MORE - Ragdata's Rubber Duck

And just to round this up ...
Here’s a visual reference how J! output is styled with CSS

Note: RT-templates starting from 2009 work with template-oeverrides ... so it gives just an idea ...

I found out from another forum that the file I am looking for is en-GB.ini
line 261. There it defines the text used for the Read More section. Once I got that, I was able to cheat the .css to make "readon" the same as "readon2"
I would have preferred to be able to change where the .css is defined for Read More, but this works as well. It' just not the correct way to do it.
