He raises another interesting point: getting Freeciv to speak something other than English in Windows is a real pain. Your average Windows user doesn't modify environment variables, create .bat files or shortcuts to these .bat files. This is because Freeciv is really a Linux game, and in Linux, it "just works", but if we are to support Windows seriously, something should be done about it. Again, it's understandable that Michael raises the issue: his potential audience is small to begin with, but if we have to look for Scottish Gaelic speakers who run Linux, it's even worse.

I've tried to install the current stable version on windows (2.2.7), and it's not that bad. The game starts with the locale of the OS.

The problem is that you must *manually select* the locales on the installation. If you don't do that, which is the default option, the game will start in English.

I think that selecting all the locales in the install it's the best we can do to make the game playable for everyone who does not speak English.

OTOH, the problem with the Gaelic locale is that gtk and gnome are not localized in Gaelic, so you'll never have the common dialogs on Gaelic.
