Now, wouldn't it be nice to integrate this in gnubg?
So the user could choose the language from a menu entry?
If there are no plans doing so, I would like to add the possible language
selection into
the 'language package' that is available for download.
And it either would be a BAT file, copying the xx.po file to the yy
subdirectory as
gnubg.mo (with xx being the language chosen by the user, and yy the language of
Windows)
or
a BAT file that sets the LANG value and runs gnubg afterwards
Advantage of xx.po to yy\lc_messages\gnubg.mo: once executed, the user can run
gnubg just by clicking the gnubg icon (as he/she is used to do).
Disadvantage: gnubg runs in the language chosen, unless the BAT file is
executed
again.
Advantage of the BAT file setting LANG: the user can choose wich language to
use with
gnubg, but he/she must run the BAT file instead of the gnubg icon (and that's
not so
obvious for some users)
Any comments?
