If I have perfectly understand, we have a problem when we want to show words
which are function of one variable or more. So, I think a solution is create
a function the result of which is a string. And that function is adapted for
each language.
So, in function.php, the function and procedure aren't function of the
language, they just call the �nationalized� functions which are in a
different file.
I know that solution implies you leave php code in the lang/ directory, but,
for the moment, I don't see another solution which can adjust to every
language.
If we use that system, we must answer to an another question : how can we
combine two �nationalized� functions ? I think it's only possible if the two
strings are sentences. So, all the result of �nationalized� functions must be
a sentence or several sentences. Even the period is included in the string,
because :
- in english : enjoy Freenet!
- in french : amusez-vous avec Freenet !
But :
- in english : enjoy Freenet.
- in french : amusez-vous avec Freenet.
Moreover, if a new �nationalized� function is created, as long as that
function has not his french or deutch version, we simply use the english
version : one english sentence in a page is not a catastrophe, and is better
than no sentence at all.
And, for sentences like "There is a more recent version of this document
available here", why not give the priority to the more recent english version
instead of the old french version, if you modify that �nationalized� function?
That's the only solution I see.
