DetailsThis is the current status of my work to switch to using XML for the language source-files. I basically stopped working on it in the middle of it all, and I'm not even completely sure why, right now.
What I've done so far: - Created a basic structure of the file format, and documented it with an XMLschema file - Written a tiny script that validates languages against this schema - Written a script to convert v2 languages to XML - Started a rewritten ganlang that should end up as a drop-in replacement for the old one. What's missing (all in genlang): - Deciding how to put translator notes into the source file - Add checks for differing <source> between English and the translation - Add header/sourcefile generation - Fix any braindead design decisions.
