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.
