Summary: en_US locale (to restore diacritics etc) Project: Freeciv Submitted by: jtn Submitted on: Fri Aug 3 20:37:19 2012 Category: None Priority: 3 - Low Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Planned Release: _______________________________________________________ Details: In a number of places (notably nations), there are plain ASCII renderings of names/words with diacritics etc with i18n marking, accompanied with TRANS comments instructing translators where to reinstate the non-ASCII characters. This means English players miss out on correct orthography. I could fix this for en_GB players in the po file (but haven't). Any reason we couldn't supply an en_US locale whose *only* job was to restore the orthography? (It's possible this could even be done mechanically, although I'm not sure how it would work exactly.) (An alternative would be lifting the restriction that means msgids have to be ASCII-only. I don't know what that entails.) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://gna.org/patch/?3481> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ _______________________________________________ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
