Description

i18n

Description

Isn't it ironic that we can translate games, yet can't translate ourselves?

Prerequisites
  • A better way of templating and outputting strings than good old printf. I'm open for any kind of suggestion here - even changing the project's programming language, if you can convince me.
Implementation

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by identifying how the project currently templates and outputs user-facing strings, then evaluate alternatives to printf for translating thcrap itself. Done means an agreed approach and implementation plan for internationalized output.
