Hi,
I'd like to propose a patch for further i18n of VDR, namely in the
commands.conf and reccmds.conf files. Even if any user can customize
these files to his whishes (and language), I think that it is more
consistent from the VDR user interface point of view if the commands
defined there also change their language on the OSD, according to the
OSD language setting.
All that the user has to do, is to provide, additionally to the "normal"
files commands.conf and reccmds.conf, the version(s) in the language(s)
he want's to use as commands.conf.xyz and reccmds.conf.xyz, where ".xyz"
is the 3-characters language code defined in VDR's i18n.c:
// The 3-letter names of the language...
{ "eng,dos",
"deu,ger",
"slv,slo",
"ita",
"dut,nla,nld",
"por",
"fra,fre",
"nor",
"fin,smi",
"pol",
"esl,spa",
"ell,gre",
"sve,swe",
"rom,rum",
"hun",
"cat,cln",
"rus",
"hrv",
"est",
"dan",
},
Important notes:
- There is *no problem* if VDR does not find such translated command
files at startup or at OSD language switching on the fly, it will always
fall back to the default and if those are missing, as you already know,
it's not a big deal either, so the behaviour doesn't change (except that
there is a syslog message if such a customized file hasn't been found,
just to inform users who are reading the logs, that *they could have*
multiple command file versions according to configured OSD language, for
english setups it#s absolutely silent as before);
- this will only work with the *first* name for languages where multiple
3-letter names are defined;
- As english is all over in VDR's source code specially treated, this
makes no exception here, so it's indeed treated specially: english files
need *no* such 3-letter extension, and are *only* loaded in their
default form.
Have phun,
Lucian
